Good luck with your build Robert look forward to seeing how this turns out for you. What's the new fuel system consist of and what kinda bling are ya going to run for an intake?

Wasn't all that long ago that 650-700whp was a bunch now if your not turning 900+++ your not even in the game.

OK guys, I would like to help Robert out and give some of the details of this build. I will add as the build comes along. I have lots of pictures of before,during tear down & motor build pics. I am only posting a couple so everyone can see where we are at as of now.

This build was scheduled to start several months ago but without a motor there was no since in pulling it apart and taking up a rack while we wait on the engine. We still don't have a motor but have been promised it will ship this week.

Robert if you will e mail me all the engine specs and parts being used I will try to post them in English.

The basics are (will update with detailed info)
RHS 427
TFS 245's
Aruns custom cam
Fast 102 with 90mm TB
1200cc Injectors
Custom fuel system
F1x supercharger
Cartek bracket
ECS Intercooler and piping
Big red race valve
Coan 3 disk lockup converter

We are cleaning and painting everthing possible, fixing anything that could give Robert issue, remote fender mounting coils,removing any unnessary wiring from harnesses and so on. We have a long road ahead but the end result should be a 1000 plus rwhp car that can be driven anywhere in full street trim with good drivability and reliability and then be able to bolt some slicks on it and run bottom 9s to high 8's in the 1/4.

This build is overkill but doing so should decrease any chance of failures and increase the chance of obtaining his goals.

Pat I can take it, The guy that did all the build on this motor is the same one that did the build for Arun last motor. Tim the engine builder he is unreal on the pain he takes on EVER little step of the build.

Plus I know Kris is one hell of a tuner, also the same on ever step he does to a car. He and Shane will have it done in no time, and back on the road. Robert

I am guessing he is doing something secret to the glove box since it had been removed before delivery to me.

Mabe he is having one widdeled out of wood for the real wood grain effect.

You where not to be telling all here kris. No on the glove box I sent it up to Dennis at DD he redone it for me in some of that sweet leather stuff that cost more $$$. But I do have it back now and it looks great.

I like the looks of the z06 car, Plus may buy a hard top for it befor long, will that though ever one off on it.
I guess I couldnt put up a 9 in it now. But after you get done with it, and we go to the track we may be putting a 8 up.

Not sure what you tried to said, but I think you should upgrade to the ECS Haltech ECU if you're gonna run it hard at the track.

I luv u robert, every time u post and someone comments makes my day.
I wish you would of started your thread after it was dynoed. But on the other hand i'll miss all the comments that wouldn't be coming with a quick install dyno thread. I'm going to try my hardest to make it out to the racers coming up and meet some of you gear heads. Keep the up dates coming.
