I just took it for its first ride, and untuned, it feels as fast as my procharged 80 formula. The 80 formula puts down over 600 HP and torque to the ground, so I'm using it as a gauge. Will hit the chassis dyno in a month or two to tune it.

Thanks to Dave Wilcox for the beautiful port work and CVMS for assembly.

Awesome build Steve! I'm curious how you addressed the manifold height/ hood clearance issues. BTW How do you like the super 400 hood? Any chance we can get you to post some pics of your beast?
