Why the removal????

The car is changing directions into a race car to run at Bonneville. I want to run in the "Classic" category which allows no computer controlled ignition or fuel management. I'm toying with the idea of a blow through 4 barrel or may end up draw through. The megasquirt EFI will end up on my 181 Thing.

How can U stay on this seat with so hot engine? Your leg and arm must me painful after some little run.

Wow thats some surgery!! glad your ok!

Bars going in!

Some progress from today. Instead of a 4x5 inch support pad we decided to just run the 1/4" along the whole side.

A couple more bars today!

Here is a quick update to get this back caught back up. here is how the cage turned out.

I wasn't going to have any turbo engines done for Bonneville, so we put in an 1807cc normally aspirated engine and ran at Speedweek setting a record at 106.420 MPH. I then bumped up the compression and bolted on some goodies (recommendations and help of FJCamper and Retro Racing) and set another record at World of Speed running an average of 113.131 mph. Now its back to the turbo engines to get some real speed and see what records we can go for in 2017.

Looks real good! Nice job on the back to back records!

That's awesome!

What's inside an 1807cc motor?

The 1807cc 76x87 had a 76mm CB crank and 87mm Mahle pistons and cylinders, 110 cam, 1.25 rockers, cleaned up stock heads cut to 10:1 compression, and dual Kadrons.

That's cool. I've always wondered about building a mini stroker like that. Sounds fun.
