BTW Jim, I think you can safely claim 600HP at this point based on your trap speed.

Happy Birthday you ole' racer...........may your RT times stay constant and your TS continue to increase. Mine will be in a few more weeks and I have now adjusted to a more grown up approach. I will be 30 with 31 years of experience....lol. Although recently referred to as 14 again. At 14, we were doing pretty well at TT Scramble racing.... I have since added 2 more wheels. Keep enjoying life Jim....

I am trying to sell most of my amx parts, hoods,Glass and steel,,finders, all engine parts. Grip you know I do not like dyno;s, JS Benz did dyno it and got 538 that was when i was running 11.00 and single pulley at 6lbs of boost ,,now stacked with 14lb of boost. jim

360-435, Humm did not know that, I have a older engine masters magazine that showed using a 401 and the perfect combination of stock parts produced 528 hp.
