Ok, I opened an account with Stage6, however, every time I try to upload a video, it says it's in the wrong format. I downloaded the divx program but don't know how to apply my video to it. Sorry, I'm just one computer illiterate bastard! :lol:

Not at all. I could never be so bold. I'm just some lucky dopey bastard that is fortunate enough to have the car right now. As we all know, all of our possessions are only with us for a short time and then they move onto to someone else. Nothing more, nothing less. There's nothing there to read into or misconstrued really. I hope I didn't present a negative impression there. I guess that is what is wrong with the written word. One's meaning can be interpreted in multiple ways...

The road to Palenville is always a blast to drive, nice and twisty. Always more fun when there's not some one riding their brakes in front of you (often the smell of burnt brakes hangs in that canyon). I like the mix with RUSH, good choice.
I'm sure you've got the car put away for the winter. When can I hope to see it again? I'd love to get a pic of my Miniceptor in the scoop. I've got a hat for ya too.

It being really blown,its most likely a low comp motor,prob at 8 to 1 comp. so he's prob running pump gas like 89-93 octane

Bart is correct. Running just pump gas and it's underdriven by 9%. The motor is stripped down right now for proper blower cam and dished pistons instillation. I found a funny car driver/mechanic to do the work and as he put it, "You're running low horsepower, only 600 to 700..." You don't want to know what his idea of high horsepower is!

If you can get 600-700bhp to the ground without shortening the rear end and installing tubs and slicks, you've got all the go you need.



So what was his idea of "high horsepower"? :twisted:

I hear ya. 1200-1500 is what he thinks is high HP. Believe me, mine scares me enough. It's going to the dyno as soon as it's completed, so we'll see where it's at...
