    My other car is an 89 Corvette that I recently completed a frame-on restoration of. It's not old enough to pull the body, but it did need paint, interior and an engine refresh. (It's only got 60k on the body...but age finally catches up with a vehicle after 20+yrs.)

    For the engine, I decided to build my first (and possibly only) performance motor. I built it with appearance, MPG, and emissions in mind (not typical for the sports car, performance-building community).

    For now, I'll just post a couple of pics of the motor -- as it was the most complicated part of the restoration. I knew very little about performance building, computer tuning, engine porting and polishing before I started this project....

    ^^^ Very Nice Build and by the looks of it I can tell your Vette has to be TOPS as well. Vette's aren't slime, they are just that, Vettes! Never Replicated and always remembered.

    Well I have my Jackadeo:
    95 Rodeo(Pup) crew cab mounted on a stretched Jackaroo (Trooper) chassis with the tub from a 2010 Navara (Frontier), seats from an R34 Skyline etc etc etc and an SC on the bench

    And a 76 Mazda Cosmo
    Big bridge-port 13B, aftermarket EFI, close ratio box, Rx7 brakes, 17 x 8.5 BBS RKs, 191rwhp@9200 rpm Needing of paint and the turbo thats on the bench

    The wife has a stock Mazda 6 - I was told I'm not allowed to touch it
    The answer is more power! What was the question?

    Time Attack Car? That's a new expression to me...sounds like it'll be fast enough to transcend the space/time continuum?

    Either way, 700HP in any car has to be killer fast...probably into the 9's?

    For shizzle, faster than mine. I'm at 440rwtq and 350 HP at 5k rpms. These long-runner intakes are torque monsters. (Torque peaks below 3500 rpms!) But still... not bad with my close-ratio 6-spd stick. Haven't run it for a time-slip...but it'll get to 60mph in about 4secs.

    Very nice! LOL Time Attack is rather new to the scene as far as what it's become today. http://www.redlinetrackevents.com/ That is the major leader in Time Attack events.

    You are correct. 700AWHP with about 550AWTQ (about what i'm aiming for with a 2.3L boosting at 40psi on C16) will break into the 9's with a good driver but it will be built for the curves
