One thing I forgot to post.

I am using HID-4 on the headlights.

These have a flat bucket, which I did not like. Going to the curved class to get the ole-school look, with HID performance.
The curved lamps will still have the tri-bars.

It looks and sounds fantastic bud. The HP/TQ as well !

Looks and sounds terrific Eric!
I bet they'll find some more power, but 514hp to the rear is nothing to sneeze at anyway! Can't wait to hear how it hooks up with those Avons.

Either or both is a possiblity. Don't I need to get my hotel for the LCS (if I am going)?

If you have the hotel and contact for the London event I would like to have it so I can get that scheduled.

I has been a long time.

Terry,

Yeah 514 is fantastic, but it is the same "majic number" of 110 hp off the crank horsepower. I was thinking I would gain some using Ron's super-duper sidepipes. I think there is more there, and the dyno was showing rich during WOT, so I am would "guess" it has more in it.

Thanks for the comments!!!

Ok, I'm a new guy, so maybe I don't know how things are done on the website yet, buy I cannot see any of the pictures. I get a white box with a red X in it. I see pictures on the other thread for the new picture loading software that so many tried out, but I really want to see this build. Any suggestions?

Thanks

could be a couple of things, what web browser are you using? IE?

gkellogg · #**171** (**permalink**) 01-27-2009, 08:30 AM

yes, IE on a dell using windows 2000. Soon to move to XP though.

Love the pics I see on other threads. However, I notice that you are in St. Louis. I make it up that way every so often, so maybe we can meet sometime. I'm only 3 hours down the interstate (44)from you.

Try dumping your temporary internet files.

Yup, 3 hours down the road!

Well,...

Tomorrow is the BIG day.

I get up early and drive 600 miles to Plano to pick up my car.

We have had tuning trouble, but that would seem to be in the past. I am told the car runs like a dream.

Lots to report on the injection system, and tuning thereof. But first, get the car and see for myself how it runs.

I was thinking that years from now I will not be so quick to remember the problems, but more enjoying the next mile in the car.

I will be home Friday, and should be able to post results and pics!

Best wishes Eric. Hope you are very satisfied with that beautiful car you have and it drives just as good as it looks.

Great Asp · #**175** (**permalink**) 03-06-2009, 02:03 PM

Thanks Rok!

10 hours and SPF 2917 is home!

I already see lots to do

, but no fault with the guys at Keith Craft Motorsports. They were fantastic.....

Nice Car Eric. Glad it's home safe & sound. Have Fun! Regards,

Stentor · #**177** (**permalink**) 03-06-2009, 03:04 PM

The car looks great! So how does she run?

That Dynatek system looks sweet.

Ah, Dynatek...

Well, it runs great.

The jury out for me still. We had a bunch of trouble with the tune, and the associated issues that follow delays (Money). So before giving a more complete opinion, I need to drive the car for a while.

But it does run great, and power????? Un-believable power

The clutch is not broken in yet, and I need some miles on the motor (normal miles), and then I'll post some vids

RodKnock · #**179** (**permalink**) 03-06-2009, 03:36 PM

Eric,

The car looks beautiful. Very nice indeed.

I'm a little curious about the issues with the Dynatek tuning, since the tune right out of the box is supposed to be very close.

No, it wasn't close.

But Dynatek spent a lot of time and money to get the system running better. (We all spent time and money)

But like I said, I would rather get a chance to see the proof in the puddin so to speak, and then give an overall report.

Right now I could not tell anyone with a higher hp FE to go buy one. But the 302's they seem to have down to a science.
