Car is now ready to run and has been trailered up to Performance Associates in San Dimas. Has been fired up for the first time and is now ready for some serious tuning on the dyno! :unibrow:

That's great!

I know you said it's still for sale but do you plan to come to the states and drive it before you sell it?

CptKlutz 11-21-2012 10:13 AM

Initial setup on the dyno is now done, playing it safe with 10 psi tops until it's all broken in and set up. Tune is for maximum driveability and fun, not bragging rights. Later we'll likely go to around 15 psi.

CAn you tell us the heads/headwork and cam specs on the motor ?
Compression ?

Even though it says BBK on it that looks like the TFS-R intake ?

CptKlutz 11-22-2012 12:08 PM

Absolutely:
Edelbrock Victor Jr. heads, fully ported by Total Performance in Santee. Of course port matched in and out.
Custom grind hyd. roller cam by CamMotion, duration @ 0.050” is 226° intake and 220° on exhaust with lift at 0.540” intake and 0.542” exhaust, 114° lobe separation and 110° centerline.
9.2:1 compression ratio.

The intake is really a BBK Performance 5.0L SSI-R Race Intake Manifold incl. their fuel rail kit. Nice piece although they wouldn't sponsor a dime, cheap bastards! ;) The matching BBK Power-Plus 80mm throttle body got lost somewhere along the way so we're using a LS3 unit now.

A little delay getting it trucked back from San Dimas but now they're on it in Escondido:

Very nice!! How come its going up for sale? Was it built to sell?? Either way cool build.

Import rules have changed, making it too expensive to register here...

Another small update: Finally my countless hours creating a one off carbon fiber rear wing are showing. Thats probably a full weeks work right there.
Also note how its repositioned to where it actually has some effect:
