Hi,, well after some long winter month of work ,we were at our firstdrag  race for the season here in France!
So our good friend Laurent O ran best 11.65" with the car and his new 2276cc.
And for us, we screwed the 2387cc engine on  cedric' car(black hand ) as Ingrid oval is not ready.We finely ran a very good 11.86",with a quite bad 60ft (1.785") and  a too long gear box (4.125 with 3.78/2.06/1.38/0.89) .Now we have to wait EBi to run the engine on I girl car with the good gear box and a real race weight car!!!  Grin Grin

Should be obligatory at any race if you ask me  Smiley Preferably with a very strict dress code!

Congrats with the new times! As JHU mention above, please send them in so that we can start upgrading our list for this season.

    the 86mm crank is  a "good old" bugpack T4 center wedgmated and with porsche rod bearing.the rods are 5.500"carillo.the heads are drd L8 bought in 46*38 but this winter we modified them to go with 48*38 and very light valves.tfor the cam I remain the fk46 we ran for the last 2s easons adding  1.5 pauter rocker.the CR is around 12:1.the 51.5 are jaycee ones with some berg special parts on them now Grin ehsaust is a jay cee 2"
the case is a vw mag one purchased from mike Lawless
I plan on changing cam for the future (pauter grind for sure,don already gave me info about  the one I want Grin) but needless to say that we first screw like this to see on a lighter car and the KCR race box waiting in the garage!!
