We were about 25-30 feet away from it. I can’t even imagine what those nuts standing on the other side by the guardrail felt (about 10 feet away) !! 🤣 > > Unfortunately, my car (still with the POS motor) only ran a stinking 13.5 @ 102mph.

Now I am going to have to pull a valve cover and measure the valve lift with my dial indicator so I can tell which cam is in it. That’s just about the only way I can tell which motor it actually is. (they have many different models with different levels of HP & torque and the only way I can positively identify it is by the cam specs, not that it really matters cuz it’s going back anyway, but I just want to know) > > I can’t fuckin wait until my new motor is done! If I wasn’t working, I’d have been there. Ever since I saw your car at that one car show up by Natrona Heights years ago I fell in love with it, wish I could’ve seen it run. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/night-of-fire/190584)._
