Hope it all goes to plan- I hit a little stumbling block today- but hopefully should be able to sort it out pretty quick.

Yeah the car will definately see some 1/4 mile and track work.......

THAT will be the interesting part- can't wait to see the ET and MPH this thing will pull........

Thats one heavy cam your gonna run. Short gearing and high comp I can state how important these two are when modding so heavily. Reversion and pulsation will be a problem at low rpm but these are the sacrafices we make for speed.

I out of all people hope this animal kicks some butt!!!!!! I saw Laminges supercharged TE50 down at calder and it ran a 13.5, being beaten by turbocharged starlet at 1/10 the outlay. The car has never run properly and probably never will

Noboss

13.5 out of a S/C T3 thats pittyfull!! What was wrong did he have a couple of plug leads off??

Seen the pics and read the writeups on Minges car but have never seen the numbers- power or times........

love to know what it could do though...........

hope it's more than that though- yeah, always keen to catch up and get others' opinions on my pride and joy- something I've always wanted to do- I reckon it will be a ball tearer......

I think the only T3 part left on that engine is the intake manifold and the engine cover, so I wouldn't really call it a T3 engine, But 13.5 out of any supercharged V8 sounds a little low.

Good luck with your build Jim, I hope your combo works well for you and you get the numbers you are after.
