Hehe!!

Commentators had no clue, what to say.

- "That's very special, very special. We have seen everything in today... Papers says, that is '23 Ford, but it is what is...it is clear that there is turbos... special, special. There is everything to everybody in this class...etc"



Seppo called. The Rapture throwed waters after 1/8 and Jyrki saw nothing so no luck so far.

Ted, we have just booked to dyno at Santala Racing for thursday evening and now we hope to see some REAL numbers w00t. Let's hope the engine won't break at the dyno, cause we should race at saturday qualifications at the second round of the Finnish Championships. So, we are bit busy at the moment. I now have to figure out how we get that intercooler modified to fit the small dyno room Smile.

Great going guys!  You’ve kept downtime to a minimum and you’re back up and running.  Give ‘em fits during that next test session.

Running again after being dead for awhile! Some small water leaks to fix, but we still have hope to race next weekend. Chevy pistons and connecting rods didn't make it run any worse than it did with fifty year old stock parts BigGrin.

Good news. The block is ok and it is now bored out and stress honed to take those SRP pistons inside of it. Not a scratch in the walls! Also the crank is ok and it is now milled to accept Chevy sized Callies con rods. Camshaft bearings are changed to new ones and things will go back together as soon as the rotating assembly is balanced Smile

The Master Cylinder (5/20/2012)
Did any of the "fifty year old parts " pass thru your turbos? w00t And do any damage in there?

No damage in turbos. The boost put all scrap down and valves went close just after "white smoke" and big bang... Whistling
