We swap for the spare gearbox this week ,the engine is already open for cheking : all is ok inside . Francois "Shrek" with new combo 421hp and 50Mkgs torq on Pat's dyno but big carb jetting trouble between 3500/4500 rpm . And some trouble to found 2nd gear when shifting and he falls into "the abyss" between 3500/4500 rpm ... 3rd and 4th its ok but to much time waste during 2nd gear The burnout was very impressive . HolleyMolley 11.3 with previous Shrek engine 210hp+ .
