2 Very cool cars, welcome. Any specs on either two cars. Turbo setups aren't as common here as USA and would love to know what your running.

C'mon kids gather round,
there's a new sensation hitting town,
It's moving straight, low to the ground,
it'll pick you up when your feeling down.

it is a 2276cc type 1 CB case with a T4/T3 high bread Gates turbo with custom fin configuration 650 carburetor with big alcohol jets( it needs a lot
of gas) we use a 2 step boost control from Turbosmart and the wastegate is also Turbosmart, Geers cylinders will hold up to 50 lbs of boost the
highest boost I have run to date is 18lbs it ran 10:33 at 133mph, we have been having clutch issues???? burning them up if I go higher on the boost??
I just went with a two disk clutch setup and I will test it out after the new year I will update you how it goes?? should be in the 9's easily, and I
will start a thread on the build of the EFI turbo for the street car engine

living in So. Cal I shaved away the windshield wipers it never rains??? and used early bus rubber for the windows, it is thinner than the "Cal
Look" rubber and no grove for the chrome trim I also changed the dash to an early 60's dash.........

Very nice cars! I really like the thinner window rubbers, did you get these custom made to size?

The rubber is a stock size of an early bus; I took the old rubber to Wolfsburg West and they found the rubber to fit, just measure your rubber and
email them and they will be happy to help you!!!
The brakes are Monza RX7 4 piston with some small mods they work well
