Oh yes no trailer queens, dont get me wrong i trailer it to the track that way i dont have heat soak. But they will be a driver. The 363 would most likely only come out early spring late fall while the temps are still low. the 434 on the other hand that can be driven when ever. Two totally different motors. the efi ren motor would be hurting a lot of parts because making over 1200 hp at the crank is tough at that cubic inch and it has to be non intercooled and no meth. I was talking with a lot of guys including dave zimmerman at team z he said the 434 could easily get to 1600 hp on race gas 1300 on 93 octane. i plan on spinning that f1 or f3 r up there in the upper 20 psi range

Trailering it is another good idea in the way that if something does break, you have a ride home too lol.

You should start trying to find sponsors man, with as much as you promote Team Z they should give you that roll cage lol.

The chassis work? I can't say because daves giving me a good price not sure if thats just for me or not. So i don't want to have people calling in saying that a guy i know got this and you charged him this, kinda stuff.

na man, wish i could. Im on a budget with this bad boy. Dont know what you paid, but i was quoted $1,000+ to put it all in.
I have a bunch of friends that can weld, im just trying to find a tig welder to do it (since its chromoly thats all you can use)
With the price it costs, i was thinking of just buying a nice Tig for a little more, and then learning to weld later on
