Perhaps we can be the official supporters for 4agedub on the day

Sorry guys no pics yet.
The engine is in. Jetting done. She actually feels good... a lot of torque. More than what I expected for a 1776cc. The compression ratio probably helps for this. We ended up going for 10.9:1. I must say after driving her with the turbo engine, nothing can really compare.
You really get spoiled with the power.
I have not run her on the dyno yet, so have no idea what kind of power she makes, did all the tuning on the road with a wideband afr gauge.
Friday will be the first time out to Zwartkops for qualifying and Saturday is the race.
