The engine had already run for 1 minute. But it stalled as it was cold. Oil pressure had got to 40psi for 50 seconds before she stalled. I am very carefull with my old Rover/ Buick V8.
She has done me proud since the new build just a month ago by giving me a 12.08 pass on the 1/4 mile in shakedowns.
I'm hoping to break into the 11's in March and make a 10 second pass by the end of 2008.
I got it sent over secondhand from the USA. They cost around 300 quid in the Uk. But if you keep an eye on ebay you find they come up now and again. This cost £120 inc shipping and taxes last month. Had to give it a clean up but so what. I save nearly 200 notes.
Looks great put a bigger spacer to lift it up a bit??
