Damn that Chad! This whole project was inspired by "THE CHAD!"

The Thank You list is endless, but I'll do my best:

Huge Thanks to Steve Drummond at Drummond Race Cars for building this incredible car! His attention to detail and enthusiasm is second to none. I could not have asked for a better shop to build this car.

Another Huge Thanks goes to my good friend Jason Heffner for providing the development/consultation on the whole project, engine/suspension/brake parts, turbo system fabrication, and overall support over the last 2 years while this project has been in the works.

I can't believe I forgot my good friend Gary Almond!!! Gary Almond has done an incredible job transporting this vehicle during the "construction" phase. Thank you Gary.

No seat time yet. The weather is just not cooperating. We have had 2 private track rentals gone bad. We're shooting for next Sunday!

Very Nice

What's the green led screen on the passenger dash?

We use those same switches w/ red led. Care to share what they switch?

Looks awesome

My Gawd!

The work under the hood is spectacular!!



Q for you: What're the two gauges in the coinbox and what purpose does the two readouts on the passenger side serve?

Thanks,

Jay K.

Thanks for the great feedback!

The display on the passenger side dash is the boost controller. The switches are Line Lock, Overdrive, and Boost Controller/Data Logger.

Gauges are Trans Temp, Crankcase Vacuum, and Boost.

The dyno numbers are as follows:

5psi = 840rwhp
11psi = 1100rwhp
17psi = 1300rwhp (traction issues)
21psi = Tires said "F*&# OFF"


Final specs:

575cid V10
Twin 88mm Turbos
Powerglide trans with GearVendors Overdrive
etc.

Congrats to Sal and Heffner. Appears that 575 cubes really makes a big difference in power vs. psi (IMHO more so than the step up to a PT88 from a 76GTS)
