Paxton

Every Peterson Publication will tell you "easy weekend job". Real life is, four evenings are gone and its still not possible to close the hood, this f* Paxton is sitting to high, beside several other things that have to be modified. Proud to be American Made, you are kidding!

Truxmore Torino

There is a good chance to see one more NASCAR running beside the Olympia Charger at LeMans Classic in 2008. Junie Donlavey's Truxmore sponsored Torino with a Boss 429ci engine was running 1976 24 Hours of Le Mans. For latest News go to Truxmore Torino, the racecar currently undergoes restoration.

The only ...

bargain i did ever in Grat Britain was this old Santa Pod fueler chassis. It was running a blown nitro Hemi which was seperately sold long time ago. According to Jon Spoard of UK Dragracing Nostalgia its probably Pat Cuss's Ratcatcher one of the early rear engine fuelers of the late 70's. It's got the massive early Olds/Pontiac axle and nice 14x16 American Racing BearClaw wheels. It will get some refurbish for garage display, I dont think it will ever see the racetrack again.


Then...1977


Now...2003

Corvette L82

G-Tech test of a 1979 Corvette L82. Stock engine with headers and Holley carb. Testweight 4000lbs two onboard, streettires, airtemp 12 degree Celsius. Not bad at all.

Megasquirt

The last time I visited my friend Mexx we did testdrive his Karmann Ghia with a new engine. Waterboxer block with widened borespacing, Nikasil-cylinders and pistons from Porsche 911, rollercam and the proven selfmachined heads with SBC Valves. A premiere was the Megasquirt DIY EFI which replaced the outdated GEO Storm EFI. The Megasquirt was really amazing and worked flawless over the rpm band. Still things for refinement are coldstart, coldidle at low temperatures, but its not easy to obtain smooth operation with a radical camshaft. For further info and purchase on Megasquirt go to MegaSquirt Electronic Fuel Injection Computer by Bowling & Grippo .
