It'll be a little while, it's got knock out the wazoo, which is really bad to have. KR will kill an engine really fast, particularly these engines (they have thin tops on the pistons, they chip easy) Other than that, it seems to run fine. It's making a ticking sound, but I believe I've got a sticky lifter or two.

The reason I say it'll be a while is due to all the bugs I've gotta iron out, she'll get there. A couple mustang and rice guys got funny looks on their faces at the traffic lights. It's got a really lopey idle, and my exhaust is very loud, but it's got an idle that is very unique, not one that I've ever head before. Sounds awesome

I dunno, I don't know much about them, and he debadged it for maximum performance too boot. What I do know is that it's a silver sedan, turbo, and basically stock. He has a case of oil in the trunk, the seals are shot in the turbo and it blows oil out the pipes. He was bragging about his 13.5 pass the other day, but he's only got that time once. Should be a drivers race if I can get the tune fixed on this thing.

With this build it should be capable of reenacting your 6th picture right?

That would be cool. Wheelie wise, most sixes only lift an inch or so, if I had a spec stage 3 or 3+ clutch I could pop the front once, but it hurts 60' times, not worth trying.

However, the engine we're almost done building for the mustang should drag the bumper, going from a 351 cleveland with 500-600 passes, to a fully forged lightweight 408 stroker, with a hard-filled block. I drove it 10.49 with the old 351, we're planning to run 2 stages of gas, launch on ~200, and hit a ~120 in 2nd gear, dreaming of mid 9's. Gonna go crazy fast
