"Will dyno over 1200" Has it DONE it or not? What does it run? It has a chute so I assume you are trapping over 150mph in the 1/4?
Was recently at the Dyno. Made 1187 to the rear wheels. It could make more but the exhaust housings are to small. Job Spetter, Jr. of Turbo people told me just to change them and I will get another 60 wheel HP or go for T76's and make 200 HP more. So yes, it did fall a bit short of my expectations but for the size of the turbo (T64 converted to a T70) I was happy. I didn't push him to get 1200 because it will come with minor changes. The car sounds great and I'm sure it will make somebody very happy to drive it. Thanks for your comments.

1QWIK6 - You should read, quick pic with a camera phone. If you or anyone is seriously interested I will take good quality pictures. If not, I would appreciate that you keep your two cents to yourself.
Texas87GN - if you only want to go 9's build a single turbo Chevy Small Block relatively cheap and you will definitely meet your goals. It doesn't have to be exotic either.

I would say 350 Cu. in. with some good heads (AFR) (Dart) should be plenty. I would invest in a Bow-Tie Block, Billet Crank, Eagle Rods, JE Pistons. T76 turbo will be more than enough. This way if you want to use more power the components can handle them.
I personally would build the biggest cubic in motor. I like to have the ability to step up without re-doing everything. It's all about what you can afford and what your goals are. You might be able to achieve your goals by going a different route. good luck.

50K car and you take 1 crappy pic? WTF
Sarge - As far as us commoners are concerned, we just want eye candy, lots and lots of pics and a 'virtual car' to all our finger prints on.
For the guy who will give you $50K - he will want lots and lots of pictures to ask lots and lots of questions.
Take and post hi-res pics so we can enjoy.
By the way - would you separate the motor/turbo/induction from the rest of the car?
I can see that combo in a slammed and steam-rolled Falcon.
Better pictures I hope. Also, you can listen to the motor on youtube.com, just type in Lesrat1 in the search and it will come up. Open to reasonable offers if someone is seriously interested. I guess we're only allowed 5 pics at a time. More specific pictures available at your requests.
thanks
