Engine finally back in
Taken me longer than I thought but its because I have had so much work so thats
good since it means mo money. Taking all next week off to finish it off, just have to plug wiring
back in and hook up the hoses and then do some initial tuning..
Set the linkage up for only 80% max throttle as Im trying to keep it around 600hp
until I can upgrade the drive which is next winters project. Will have to modify rear seat as
well since the snout hits it.

Lookin good! Should be fun! Good luck w/them.
Mine are sitting pretty on carts ready to go. I have some trailer and bottom work going on to complete first. Been waiting on 60 degree temps for fiberglass and gel to cure. We finally have a warm week ahead of us here

I can easily once I get it up and running,just a matter of adjusting the linkage..
I also added some 28" Kplanes for stability.
