Looking forwards to seeing this. Unfortunate that the altitude is the great equalizer. This car could be so much more out of the altitude. It is going to be insane there but many will lose sight of what it would be in their East Coast 100ft above sea level driveway.

Sounds fun. Keep a nice photo journal going.

Sorry I have not posted more. We are just trying to get everything ready for the Camaro 5 Fest.

Here is some pics of the FAST 102mm Intake, rails, and 100lb injectors. Also a pick of Drive Shaft Shops 9" conversion. Will have my Moser Aluminum center section on Tuesday.

Mike@RMCR · 03-16-2011, 05:23 PM

Here are all the disassemble pics. Nothing like tearing down a car with less than 700 miles on it.

The engine is being dynoed tomorrow. Will post up pics and HP numbers of the engine before Boost.

g4dadon · 03-16-2011, 05:34 PM
