Chris Ott rebuilt my spare JDM motor for me. It's a 2mm stockport. It supports 500 HP. It's got 8K and no problems at all. It's all in the builder and the tuning.

I really need to install the 3mm streetport Chris built for me with my original engine.

The Tiburons and Cavaliers are shaking in their boots.... Just busting your *****. Looks great. Too bad we can't ride together this weekend. My damn back's hurting from waxing my rod....and, my car, too. Oh well, we'll ramp it up anyway, and compete together in the 12 oz curl competition. Later. LYDO

Steve should be at my house around 10:30am so I will get the latest info on your conversion. I think he's having some piping made for your car. I'll let you know what I find out.

Nope but I helped a little with an install yesterday here in Asheville. I was so busy I didn't even think to ask about your car. I will be riding with a friend to deliver his bridgeported turbo II to Steve for tuning. I'll talk to Steve soon and let you know what's happening.

congrats. also i agree, with some of the others, you dont need to build a "race spec" engine, just get it tuned properly and treat it well.

I've seen better looking engine bays in a broke down Pacer that had K'balled a Gremlin. Just kidding. Looks bad, and sounds even better from your descrip. Still, though, I'm fairly confident my un-mod'd rod would smoke you, because yours will undoubtedly break down and blow apart before the race is over. -Your Pa
