3rd gear data
3rd gear G-tech data vs. changes Superformance 2040 with Roush 427R-095
The power values represented are G-tech HP. This should not be confused with any other method of testing HP. It's only a number of reference.
Just as wheel HP on a chassis dyno is lower than flywheel HP because of additional drive line loss, the G-tech HP is lower than chassis dyno due to additional resistance such as aero drag and road resistance, even amount of air in tires would have a factor. As speed increases aero drag as well as other rolling resistance increase. For example as an estimate @ 50 mph there is an equivalent of approximately -12 HP, @ 100 mph -90 HP, @ 130 mph right about -200 HP for the shape of the Cobra.

Marti Report
Marti Report for my Mach 1. Lists various facts about the options and production of the car. What I find interesting is that the car sat on the dealer's lot from 9/69 to 5/70 when it was sold. I would have thought that this car, with these options, would have sold sooner.

Dry fitment of Fluidyne
Now that the Milodon water pump is installed dry fitment of the Fluidyne is underway. Will need to fashion small discrete upper and lower tubing so it will sit in the car OEM style.

1965 Oldsmobile 442
This is my first car. I bought it in 1980, while in HS, for $1100, and still have it. It's a 1965 Olds 442. Original 400 ci engine, rochester 4GC carb, and close ratio muncie M-21 tranny, originally 3.55 posi rear, now 3.36.
The first year for the 442 was 1964. That car came with a HiPo 330 ci engine, and only a 4 spd tranny. 442 stood for 4 spd, 4 BBL, dual exhaust.
For 1965, 442 stood for 400 ci engine, 4 BBL carb, Dual exhaust. Has factory rear sway bar . There were about 3500 1965 442 convertibles made, of which about 1600 were 4 spds. This car was originally Saffron yellow, a pale yellow, but I painted it burgundy while in HS.

1978 Cobra Jet Jet Boat
Boat manufactured by company called Cobra Jet. 18 ft long, shallow V-Hull. 460 Ford, tunnel ram, berkley jet pump drive.
The boat accelerates like a high performance car, unbelieveable. Great boat for water skiing. The only boat I've ever only needed to give it part throttle to pull up a skiier. Full throttle will rip you arms off. With full throttle, the boat will accelerate so hard, it leaps out of the water before the skier gets even half out of the water, and you have to let go at that point.
The boat is easy to trailer, to launch, to load on trailer, etc. The best boat I have ever owned. Easiest boat to use, most fun with lowest maintenance.
Kind of like a cobra, but on the water.

1970? Howard 17 ft V-Drive
I think it has a HallCraft V-Drive unit if I can remember correctly. Haven't messed with it since about 1995. Maybe it'll be a winter project.
Engine is a 1962 409 Chevy, 380 HP model. 2 Blade prop.
Unlike my jet boat which kind of fish-tails its way around, this thing rides like it is on rails. Completely different feeling than the jet-boat.
