I wish Meziere made a high flow pump for my motor.
Then I will buy your wagon! haha.

Nope, I am in the middle of adding power steering. My power steering pump and crank pulley finally showed up. I recently added a electric water pump. And just today determined the mounting locations for the new alternator (just ordered it) and PS pump. I will be doing a few more SCCA events at the Q this summer. I will let you know when I go.

a few updates....

I am adding power steering. I have the KRC pump mounted, with custom aluminum brackets. I added an electric water pump and a smaller alternator. I finished all of this the night before a work car show. I made the car show and won first in show. I was voted by a bunch of engineers.

Then I broke the trans the next day. I pulled the motor and trans last weekend and will figure out whats broken.

Ordering some new stuff today.

After lots of research, I determined I only broke the torque converter. I am still going to buy a 1000hp PA C4 with a lifetime warranty. I am also going to send them my valvebody so that they can modify it to a tranny brake this will give me a first gear lockup on decel. Since my old trans is good I will order a new input shaft and keep it as a spare or maybe sell it. The internals are all PA parts.

Hughes is going to build me a 9" torque converter that they spec as a road race converter. It will produce less heat and less parasitic drag and faster reving.

I will also be adding an auxillary fan to my trans cooler, maybe even a secondary cooler.
