Post up your times as soon as you get them. Should run a pretty quick 60-130 & 1/4 mile.

Very nice torque curve. Looks more like my NA engine than an SC.

Thanks, Eric. I really appreciate the advice you gave me IRT the build, brother.

I think you're right, Tony. Especially on street tires.

MTI and DRM (who rebuilt and re-tuned my engine) both lean towards the conservative side for safety. You might not get the huge Dyno #'s but you will get a strong engine that will last.

Luis - Mine is slow

Scott's has a big blower on top and mine is all motor with a little stroker crank.

Both motors are forged.

No replacement for displacement but holy moly your car should be fast. You should run low 5's 60-130 and in the 9's in the 1/4.

Anytime - just wanted to make sure you got what you wanted and that it would last. No fun to have to tear back into an engine and do it over.

Cool stuff Scott,
Keep us updated.
Even better news that you are back in the states and in good health (1 piece !).
I am sure you saw many crazy things on your most recent tour.
Enjoy your time back home.
Thanks for representing us so well.

I've been following your build thread. Awesome job! I see you are in Virginia. Do you plan on getting the car on VIR? The front and back straights would be a wild ride in your car! Congrats.

The torque curve is something else. Nothing seen on P cars, you are right. That much HP at only 2800rpm? Looking forward to see the good numbers Scott.

Wouldn't have believed it but I think you've managed to build a better car Scott. It'll be great to have that power curve mid turn and on exit for the track. Congrats!

Congrats on an amazing car, and for serving our amazing country. So you are using the new R2300 TVS blower I see, I have heard really good things about the new TVS blower being one of the best PD blowers out there. If the motor is forged I am sure you have alot more left on the table!
