> [@Gonad](#): > > What’s happening to the motor? N/A? the motor as it stands now…is a highcompression NA motor that we’re aiming for 220 to the wheels with. The motor itself hass been built for a while, i just had to rip it down and put the powder on…tho i may leave it in this condition until i can fab-up a sheet intake and find some 370cc injectors…iquabob gimme your 370’s when you swap…and a computer tuning system. Chances are that if i start it up and try to drive it in it’s current state of lack of tune it’ll blow itself to peices…i’ll have another update on the car itself soon…the motor is more or less done and just waiting on tuning things. exspect to see us out in may with it…that is if she holds! ---
