I emailed Sarge to see if he'd mind snapping a photo or two ( he's become quite a good photographer) I may not hear back for a couple of days; It's Jim and Sharon's wedding anniversary!!!! John

Could be a small problem now that I think about it...Allen's motor is not back together yet, so may be a week or two.

Yeah, that's it  Roll Eyes  Last time I saw Allen's set-up, there were a number of "improvements"...the most notable was the electronic fuel injectors being suspended over the tops of the velocity stacks (instead of in the intake manifolds).

The Sarge Spy Cam made it by Allen's house over the weekend for a few sneak photos.  The freshly completed mill was dynoed by George Jimenez on Saturday.  I'm not at liberty to comment on HP, but suffice it to say it's a good thing they don't let fuel injected cars compete in the Super Street class!  STAND BACK!!  Cool Shocked Grin

Thought I should report back on the performance form Sacramento.......  the only full pass off the trailer was 10.69 @123mph.  From then on it was shooting for the 10.90 index.  I did do a little tuning after the first pass and picked up .04 in the 1/8 so there is more to come.  Grin The car weighed a little over 1800#'s with me in it.
