the pressure regulator is an aero motive boost reference return style
I did sick week in Florida. but ripped the pinion in two pieces on Sunday. had a new rear in it that night at 1:00 AM but then found out the transmission was broken, we later found out it had broke the input shaft
I am in the process of getting a new rear under it (all strange products) 3.0 gears. and with that I will loose the heavy steel wheels. that will be a 70 lb rotating mass reduction in weight,  I'll scale the car again after its all said and done.  I believe on pump E-85 and below 15 lbs of boost I can go to my cage limit of 8.50's

if you look on the internet at sick week and Jeff Lutz I was lined up next to him.  It had rained that morning and my rear window leaked water into the trunk.  as I did my burnout water leaked under the car, Someone said I was leaking the starter backed me up didn't see any water pulled me back in   It spun really bad. let off and it wheel hopped bad enough to break those parts and it came loose on the next run in. the middle of a big wheelie.

Day 0 of sick week ripped the front half of the pinion out of the rear  messed up an axel bearing. Fixed it that night at 1:00 am started up the car and it had no gears we believe it broke the sprag in the trans my week was over before it started 🥲

The run before this pic. I had water leak from the trunk someone said my car was leaking  so the track people backed me up into the water looked under the front and pulled me back into the beams. I let go of the trans brake it went up in smoke I let off it then hooked and the tires were bouncing off the ground. We believe that’s what caused the damage  it just let go on the second pass

Anyone have a roots type blower(8-71+) or a procharger for an FE the might want to sell or trade
Thinking of getting away from the turbos
Thinking of putting the 520 ci turbo engine in my 64 T Bolt but with a procharger or blower

“Ahh, you do know that the HEMI Darts, and Barracuda's have their own class right? The winning car ran 8.30's @ 160mph. The FE isn't going to touch that.“. You know that 8.54 run Ray clicked it off early
