Propwash,
Yes i am keeping my powerflows.
This project has taken forever due to having to fabricate some pieces for the oil filters and we switched to regular cooling from closed cooling. I think we've finally overcome the hurdles and I'm hoping we can test in the next couple of weeks. I'm chomping at the bit to see what she can do. I'll let you all know!

Thanks for the update Nick. Take your time and make sure everything is right. No sense in rushing things at this point. You will likely have the fastest 292 in existance! At least I haven't heard of one with that kind of power...

Hi guys,
Just to give you a bit of an update. We've had the snowiest January in ten years! I'm a big skier so I haven't been overly anxious to get out on the water.
My mechanic had a death in the family so this project hasn't been on top of the list of priorities.
He's almost done plumbing the fuel system then he just needs to bolt on the exhaust manifolds, superchargers ect. We will be testing for sure within the next month. I'll let you all know how it goes the day we do it.
Thanks for all the interest!!!

Looking VERY stylish! It's amazing how much work you "find" in addition to the work you intended to do, isn't it?!
