Are you guys going OH $HIT yet? Hehehe. Just kidding.  It wouldn't suprise at the least if he is building another motor to run next year and not a detuned version.

LMAO. C'mon Bruce, are you ready to step up?
Give me a call or Email, and I will put you in touch with the people that can make you a contender vs. pretender.
AND FOR THE LOVE OF GAWD, BEFORE YOU GUYS SPEND HUGE X LARGE MONEY, let me know what your buying as I have alot of dealer contacts.
another person you need to talk to is Brad Brand. I will be talking to him in the next week or so, and he is the MAN when it comes to turbos. If you havent done any money transactions yet, give me a shout
Rob

Yesterday a big box with "Rolls Royce / Allison" written on it arrived at my house.
I´m just not sure were to get Kerosene here...
Uhh, and does anybody know if it´s allowed to use the afterburner in city driving?

Unfortunately it's a little more complicated than that Val. Within city limits, as long as you are not driving on a road with buildings closer than 25 feet to the street on either side, it is ok, and you are allowed to use it at a stop sign, as long as there is nobody behind you within 100 feet. Just thought I'd share my experience. Those tickets can be quite pricey!

I think I'm gonna detune my ride this winter. 14's are getting too pricey
I can squeeze a C-130 engine in it. I can get all the fuel I need with my job. Now, all I need is a tranny and rear that can take 5,000+ ft/lb's!
Any suggestions?

Wouldn't a JATO be sufficient?
