175 in a 3 window coupe, that must be an outstanding ride. Can you tell us what you taped up to help the speed?

Final speed was 175.539 mph after four gear changes and a roll of duct tape.  Here’s a picture of the car starting off on one of its runs.

Thanks for the pics, TIM. It great to see A familiar face as in Ted Eaton. Don't know why I'm surprised as he did the engine, but still great! Never met Keith , just heard about his setup though. What a cool deal!

Well alot of time has passed since I started this post.

Ted has finished my engine,& has posted a dyno sheet in the aftermarket heads section.

Leaving the northeast corner of NY on the 6th bright & early,meeting up with Ted in Chyenne Whyoming on the 9th,& will pull on to the flats first day of tech,the 11th.

Hope to meet,Charlie Burns,& talk with Tim again.
