Re: Project 122...

Yes, I was also amazed by the 0-60 time...so I ran it again. This was using a VC2000 professional accelerometer. Vericom makes good stuff. Anyway...my thoughts are that the car should be making around 130+ hp, based upon what I've done. couple that with around 23-2400lbs and the fact that you don't have to shift to THIRD to reach sixty (it revs cleanly to 6k)...and the 8.6 is reasonable. It'll be going on a chassis dyno soon.

Oh, and new pics are getting scanned, so watch for new pics to be added. They also show the TWM airhorns I got for the SUs (installed after 0-60 testing)
