Thats the original builders quote, judging from his race win record around here , why would he lie? he has no skin in the game. But the older I get the faster I was. Said his first run was an 8.36 in 1/4 & ran out of gear.

Nice guy, had heart attack & wife stopped him sold car & I happened upon it this week, said that was on alcohol with twin dominators. He may still have the parts that are missing waiting for update.

Looks like a fun project! Don't really look like it has enough HP on board to go 4.66 - but cool regardless...

Original builder Just called found all the missing parts & Alky setup, sounds like a keeper. Wish he had the hood though
