144mph with that weight car = 800rwhp, thats all i'm sayin. I don't doubt it will make more power with more cylinders helping push.

a t-56 going back in? i can't see how they are more fragile, i never managed to bust one clean in two haha.

the only way that bracket could ever survive is if welded, but even at that that rear ''support'' is doing jack shit. I would have put a strap like that on the front maybe but not at all on the back. that little bolt where the lca mounts to pushes half the car down the track.

has bmr seen the bracket yet? i'm fairly tight with those guys i'd be happy to send them the photo/call in i bet i could get something worked out if interested lemme know.

I guess i will have to put it on the dyno to prove it, when i get mine up and going i will be sure to give you a invite

I dont think he has said anything to bmr about it. If you got the ear of someone over there it would be nice to get something worked out with the ones he has now. I will send you a pm and we can talk about it further

George Coleman. The shortblock actually sat for a couple years before I got it, so we are thinking that was the culprit. We Just had him re hone it, and got a new set of rings. Hopefully the car will be running again next week.
