Getting the head gaskets changed and doing some exhaust work, last i checked it is right around 320hp@6700 and 280tq@4500-5900 and still needs to have cams, heads, exhaust, e85, and tune done. Suspension, clutch, brakes, body, aero, maybe seats, possibly cutting weight, drysump, surgetank, crazy ****, all of it is on the list to get done, or is already done, so once I finally put everything together it is gonna be nukin futs v8 or not.



That sounds like a crazy setup. When I was reading through everything it sounded like you were going to hold off on the v8 idea but go with some sort of FI (I could be incorrect about that). If I'm not wrong is that still in the works until you get everything squared away with the vk engine??
