Ok Brad, I'm in....

She's not fired up yet (a few last minute details to sort.... brackets and the such...)

But its 99% there and it turns over by hand....
The valvesprings are the scary-ass Karcraft ones (8400+RPM) so valve Float should NEVER be a hassle.... if it turns by hand, then barring serious Gasket failure, it should run sweet.....

Put me on the List of challengers for the "Artificially-Aspirated Small Block Challenge"

I would love to give the Montego a run to see what a standard 1275A+ would do when it is not being held back by a Mini gearbox.
Pity I will not be able to get it going by then. :cry:

Ok Brad, curiosity wins, If there is still room then add me in as well. Do they tie the little beasts down when doing a run? and if so what do I need to do?

Yes they do tie the cars down. All you need to do is bring the car, bring a camera, make yourself known to me, pay the $50 and thats it.

Haha don't worry guys... I can't run anymore then 22psi... as the turbo just can't push enough air... going any higher then 22psi shows minimal hp gain... DAM...

Could always go a bigger turbo... but we will see if we can this power to the ground first...
