Hey,it was 1.44 60 ft,no burn out and air pressure was 15 psi in tires. Once I get some more seat time I will be adjusting the car and find out what
it will do. Those were the first passes I have made in the car and haven't driven in years,so just holdin on and shifting gears,hahahahah

Hey Dave,
Leaving on the 2 step settled the car in alot,the first pass was without it,notice how much it bounced compared to the last 2. I think that is where
alot of trannies break,that loading and unloading of the chassis. I hope to go to the track this Sunday,if I do will be doing a burnout and lowering
air pressure to 11 psi,supposed to be in the mid 70's . Thanks Boostin Mike

My old Ghia was n/a tube chassis car,so this is a BIG change. The actual engine is the same one,just redone for turbo. I changed the cam and lowered
compression,otherwise it's exactly the same as it was. It will make this old mans hands tremble after a pass,hahahahah One word of advice,don't try
it without wheely bars !!!!!!!! Did a 3 wheel wheely when I did ! Of course no pics.
2275 94x82 porche rod journals,vw mains
type 1 case
8.2 compression,cima pistons and cyls
Superflow heads, 48x40 stainless valves
Kawell cam(comparable to fk 87),Berg 1.4 rockers
401 hp @6000 rpm's 15 psi boost /crankshaft hp
