Sorry...

Siggen the motor looks AWESOME Good Luck and a Lightning install to you

And Ya what Jim said, if anythings going to let loose it's ***** out in 3rd gear.

Let me say there was a HUGE DIFFERENCE going from 11.9's straight to 9.9's
if you think your running out of gear now wait to you go 140 MPH in 3rd with 3.73's in it
I think I had one eye closed just waiting for SOMETHING, hehehehe.

As for my comment on spraying it, I know I need the perfect day, perfect temps, perfect track, and correct prep work to run the 9's, (or continue to). I also think running them to that limit on a full weight truck more than you need to is just asking for trouble. All I'm saying is I rather just go out there and have fun running the 10's off spray and save the n20 for those special occassions when all the moons are in alignment : o ) hehehehehe...
Yeah!!!! Late wednesday i started it up, no leak and no problem at all The all new JLP aluminum raceengin fires imidietly,the sound are just spetacular(Bassani R system).
Have been on the street whith it yesterday and today,everything work perfekt. I use mineral oil during the break-in period and will change to syntetic later.
Hopefully i`ll get it dynoed in the end of this month,look really forward to that. Today i was on the wheigt and it was 4560lbs.whith me in,this whith Bogart wheels in all corners.
The weigthreduction i have done, is mainly fiberglas leafsring in the rear, buketseats,GT40 block and wheels.AC,radio,heater are still there.
Batery,nitrus and fuelsystem are moved back just to got better balanse on the truck(better roadhandling/traktion).

I think the minimum wage in Norway is something like $15-16 an hour (U.S.) and that's minimum. May be Siggen could tell us. But that aside, I'm sure he gets a pretty good exchange rate compared with the low buying power of American dollar in Europe.
