Racergeo, it is your business, and I’m so pleased to get the advice and explanations of those who have been there done that!
Panic, thanks for the explanation of what we’re going be hit with. March 2019 we should have the setup on a 160mph 800hp wheel dyno. We will find out then what we will have for power at the shift points.
Would a 2 speed powerglide be a better fit, or a turbo 350?
Just to reassure you all, we are committed to doing this, even if it looks to you that we’re wasting our time, we are not. Our thought going in, rightly or wrongly, is that if a Chevy Cobalt SS is advertised as a 160mph vehicle, if we put all that stuff in our contraption, safely, and within the rules, we will be happy with what we can do with it.
We’re doing this for our satisfaction of saying we ran at Bonneville. Some of us may not get that opportunity again.
So please keep on with your thoughts and suggestions, we really do appreciate it.
