Holset He341 @ 10psi. Stock SOHC 6g72 with chrome rings gapped for Boost. 92 Octane. Stock N/A computer and Spark Advance. Rising Rate Regulator. Modified InTank Walbro. 4 puck on 200k+ mile pressure plate.
Kumho All Seasons @ 35psi, worthless but no broken parts :D
Expecting a little more but I had hoped the track would hook up decently. Probably run the same E.T. on half the Boost.
Junkyard Starts on 2 year old E85 Great Depression Racing
Junk cylinder heads with burned valves (stole the cylinder heads for another car, gave back the junk from that motor), full Exhaust. 2 year old E85. Sitting in the same spot Since August 2010. Stole the entire turbo setup for another car. Waiting for version 2.0

426 Hemi in a '55 Chevy! Roadkill Episode 8
On this episode of Roadkill, HOT ROD's David Freiburger and Mike Finnegan hit the road on a quest to build a car they've both dreamed of for years: a '55 Chevy Bel Air sedan set up like a '60s Gasser and powered by a Mopar 426 Hemi. The guys drag out a '73 GMC Suburban that they'd never driven more than around the block (did you expect anything else?), then use it to pick up a bare '55 Chevy body in California before heading north for the 1,000-mile trip to Lincoln City, Oregon. That's the home of Jim Meyer Racing, the chassis builder that helps the guys turn the '55 into a wicked looking hot rod in a single day. There's no fail in this episode of Roadkill! Well, at least nothing terminal.
Roadkill appears every fourth Friday on the new Motor Trend channel. http://www.youtube.com/motortrend

Dodge Spirit R/T Burnout
This is a quick video of my 1991 Dodge Spirit gingerly converting 320whp into clouds of dry-rotted tire smoke. The rear wheels were locked with parking brake in a vain effort to keep the car stationary. My attempt to grab 3rd gear towards the end of the video and REALLY make some smoke was foiled by the stock pressure plate.
