Very nice looking piece. I too wonder where is the CG and the CP and 3 chutes. You must be looking for some really fast times. Good on you mate.

Currently it is powered by a fuel injected 180" Buick V6 on gas. Eventually it will be turbo motor to run in the 3 liter class.


Was this sold without motor?
I see in the pics that it looks like the motor is getting ready to be pulled.
The reason I ask is because that V6 is a fine motor, just wonder why you would want to change a working combination.


BTW:

Very jealous.

That motor combination was never ran. However it is a Stage II 180" v6 motor fuel injected. It was built by a fellow at Buick I believe. It was put together with the best of everything. We just don't know what "Everything" is. It was dyno tested with a FAST system and ready to run. It is a special motor. However the motor has been sitting in the liner for about 4 years. The motor is coming out due to some oil leaks that I have to locate and fix. Pull heads and see what we got. That will happen as early as this weekend.

For what is worth, I have had good dealings with Strausburgs, and they are in SLC.

I got the chance to drop over to Jon's yesterday and see the new liner up close and personal!

Wow ---  Congratulations guys, first class build quality on this one. You've got a really fine starting point there and if it runs any where near as good as the build quality looks, you should be in for some good times out on the salt flats.

Very nice design work and attention to detail, I am looking forward to seeing her run after you finish the shakedown process and get to see what the good motor will do compared to that mule motor they ran it with.


Yes the drivers compartment is big enough that even a big guy could fit in there from the looks of it.
I think driver seat inserts are on the list to fit it to most any driver.

They can even take out the foam filler directly under the crotch belt to accomodate those with larger than normal huevos :)
