It's going into a somewhat lightened (2,500 pounds?) 1964 Valiant 4-door sedan. It is in no way, a serious race car, and intended only as a test-bed for two old geezers (I'm 72 and my racing partner, Fred is 73!) having a last gasp before we take the dirt nap...

But, we wanted to show these Buick GN guys we hang out with, that the "Stage" blocks they use are not the ONLY way to go...

If we were interested in winning Bracket races, we realize that a small, turbo'd engine is not the most consistent thing in the world, so we'd build something different...
Just two old guys, tryin' to have some fun...

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ++++++++++++


Art, if we can make 600 horsepower with 35 pounds of boost, we'll be very excited! There are some guys running these (225 cu. in.) motors with 28 pounds of boost, making a little over 500, currently. We're not greedy... just curious.

Lookin' for that Achilles heel; not wanting to find it.... LOL!
