Talking The Chevy Killer Returns!

Just about finished and should be back at the tracks next week...

Hits the dyno monday and expecting 1000 hp. 23 psi through the whipple 3.4 with some juice in the mix.

I will still drive it to the track and drive it home...

Should have some vids shortly...

Thanks. Yep - I wanted to go next Thursday but I'm doing a mag shoot that weekend and they don't want me to dirty up the car...lol

I'll be out there the following Thursday for sure. Been 2 1/2 months down so I'm itching to get back and excited.

The real challenge of the build begins and that's hooking it. I've done all I can, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't worried about keeping the tires planted. I've locked out 1st gear for the juice, but I still have the TS torque to deal with off the line and wish I could 'dial it in' like a turbo, but it is what it is. Then i have to make sure it stays planted at the 100' when the juice kicks in.

I definitely have my work cut out for me but it will be fun trying...

Retarded question considering all the goodies to look at, but what resonators are those?

Awesome. Good luck getting it all to the ground. I'm sure you'll figure it out in your shake-down passes.

Unless his plans changed he is still running the 3v block. Amazing!! I'm hoping it goes really well for you.
