To many T/A's it is not as simple as Paul's new motor just making more power by x amount than his old one. Paul's old motor was suffering last year and was not making its full compliment of ponies. His trans never would cooperate. His converter was the factory stocker and in poor shape. Add all these items up and it is well beyond his actual power differences that will make up his improvement. Throw in an updated exhaust and he has a full quiver of upgrades.
The hard thing for Pual will be getting everything sorted in such a short time until the race. The motor goes in next week.
I hope it all comes together perfectly and he turns spectacular times but I think we better give him a couple rounds to learn how to drive it and get everything pulled in together.
Wish Paul luck as he still has to get into the 12's, then catch Chuck then go further. No small feat.
