So it has a motor now? So much for me winning in a race then......

Seriously: Congrats on getting the motor together. Is your spare done too?

I see you have BigStuff 3 - NICEEE! My best friends uncle John is the creator of BS3, and my buddy actually designed his logo and webpage. A local shop in my town (Rad Rides by Troy) uses BS3 in ALL of his custom cars. More recently it was used in his big turbo I4 salt flat car, which broke the fastest mile speed just last year.

The parts for the spare engine are supposed to arrive this week.

John just finished re-writing the software so that the BS3 could run staged injectors. I have seen the BS3 used on a Vette and I liked how user friendly the software is.

Ive actually sat there and watched John tune before, its amazing how smart he is. John's Vette runs off BS3 also, which is probably one of the scariest cars Ive ever rode in... I can't wait for Troy to finish rebuilding it!

I heard John was in accident a couple of months back. I hope it wasn't the Vette.

Not in the Vette... Rumor has it he is going twin-turbo in his Vette, or at least that's what his nephew has told me.

I just got off the phone with my buddy, he said his uncles Vette is done. 6.6L Twin Turbo - if you go to radrides.com and go to projects - you can see John's "Time Machine".

It'll be the sound of hundreds of your fans across North America blowing their loads simultaneaously when your engine is started up for the first time.

The idea of this makes me smile, my engine starting not everyone finishing

Only two more weeks and we should all have something to cheer about.

Towel Warning!!!!!
Okay guys you are hereby warned, these pictures may produce feelings of arousal. Not so much because of what you see but because it is actually built.

Thanks.

When the email with the pics came in, I told the wife I was going to look at the engine. She reached over to check if I had a woody.
