Would love to get back to the track soon, but unfortunately the date for the FF meet in August, will not be a good time. Am away on holidays, so you guys will have to uphold the FORD times.
Cheers!!

Might run into you at Heathcote , Rod must be ready to get the Monza on a 9 sec pass soon...

Can't say too much, as I don't really like to comment on things until they are completed. At least that way, I will be able to answer all questions when asked. It is however, being manufactured off an original TB manifold.

Would be interesting to see the outcome of this, i guess your biggest problem would be the associated wiring of it, how the drive by wire would be set up etc and what plenum design you would go for
We have seen increases from small changes like throttle body helix spacers so a twin t/b setup and bigger plenum i would think would make a good gain

Yes your right. We have seen good gains with the 80mm TB and spacers, so that tells me we could gain more in this area. Have you heard the intake of a TB without the duct on???? Could suck a football through I reckon!
The problem I'm more concerned about is the idle, so I've nearly finished a jiggy-ma-thing so as to only start opening the second TB after about 1500rpm onwards. Just have to get the ratios right so it's wide open throttle when the other is. I will try it one for one first and see how I go though.
dont think we will run a 9 this week, have to adjust the jock strap a little for that one
only going to screw it up around 6800 this week, still learning ( shit scared ) & dont want to hurt anything in the process
regards
rod
how are you going to rev it to 6800rpm, aren't the V8s limited to 5900rpm??
