Remade a set of inlets for a full frame kit. Proper frame rail clearance, true 3" uppers, proper flats at the coupler/clamp interfaces.

Had the chance to do some testing on the airstrip a while back. Dropped in some head studs which completely solved the head lifting issue. In the good weather the turbos instantly wanted to hit 40+psi, I turned it down to 38 and added a degree of timing. I set up the RAL and managed to hit 30psi on the leave.

750whp / 683wtq
137mph rolling off the line and WOT starting in 2nd
Both tests in extremely hot conditions showing 150F IAT
Goal is to have a clean 1 shift 60-130 dragy test before the end of the season with some upgrades done to the car

This is iteration 3 of the shop car full of test parts and pushing the limits of hardware to gain more first hand experience. One of the more interesting findings is watching the coolant pressure stay reasonable at right around the 700whp mark but spike above cap pressure on any run done with full timing in 4th gear above that power level, this is still on stock head bolts.

BF block, compression down to 125-145psi now
