Cool Calling BABOLT

Mike we need to talk the motor went in and I need help with the tuning approach injector sizing etc. I will forward some pics this week. I also need to compare the old ported cylinder head flows versus my new heads. To complicated for me? Finally some movement the cylinder heads look killer hope they perform. I also have some photos of the JE pistons with the plasma coatings etc. Chet

Cool

Oh Chet,
Could you please post some photos for us poor mortals who salivate over your twice blown Lightning. I for one know that you have the coolest of TOYS. PS. I like how it sounds too.

PATIENCE

Hi Sal, I have just been waiting for parts. I did your suggested intercooler work and it works killer via A/C pump!!! I will forward pictures this week. I have been terribly dissapointerd in the vendor promises and lead times for getting parts. I can assure that FERREA now has valves for the IP heads. I paid for them and the development work to have them built. We now have valve springs/retainers/rods/pistons/adjustable camshaft timing gear/intercooler/valves/porting numbers/and some other goodies tbd. I hope it all works. What are you doing on the new blower and intake work.? Sounds interesting!!! I will be working with BABOLT on the tuning issues as soon as this beast runs within the next week. The motor swap was moved up by a couple of weeks so we should have time over the holidays to get things working!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It has been great reading about all of the other work and progress that you guys have been making. I still drive mine every day so reliability is a must. MY 4 year daughter is king of the burnouts out in front of her school. Chet

OH WHAT A TEASE!

Now if BABolt is working on the 32v conversion TopGun must be building a new monster or reconfiguring the dual blower setup.

WE WANT PICS!
