Main advantage of a TT setup is fast boost and gobs of torque. I have seen dyno runs, on 302, not 331 like mine, pushing 550Ft-Lbs below 3,000 RPM. With that torque, you don't need to change gears to stay in the power band. Yes, The car will never see 197MPH. I get the best of both worlds, blazing accel and fuel saving cruzing.
The car is 70% done. Major fabrication is complete. This is an old PIC as the car now sports a Spearco intercooler. Completion date should be end of this year. I still need $3,000 for the fuel cell, custom pistons, cam and Procar seats. The BMW is up for sale.
