    Well I finally got to take some photos of my blown 426 stroker. Car runs great. No issues, no CEL, no limp mode and no traction. Not sure if the last point is good or not. Even with the new diff and axles the car still breaks the tires loose at 60+ MPH. Motor was designed and built by Josh at Vaca performance. From the custom Wiseco pistons to the secret recipe comp blower cam, it’s all purpose built….for hauling ass! Very streetable and behaves extremely well under normal driving conditions. It’s my daily driver. Here are some photos of the build in progress.

    With an upgraded Vortech T-Trim blower and smaller pulley the car almost makes 12 psi. I’m shooting for 14 psi – 16 psi but 12 psi is ok for now. Last dyno was 575 RWHP on a super conservative tune. Couldn’t be happier. Just got some Nitto drag radials and should be hitting a track in the near future. Still have the stock tranny but that’s next on the list.

    Here's the start up and a peek at the motor before I added the dress up stuff
