video clip

Post by adynes »

Here is a short video clip of the engine running. This is with the base fuel map and no tuning. Can't wait until the car is legal to drive! (trivial things like lights, bumpers, plates, & insurance) The sound doesn't do it justice; much better in person.

Nice. I am building a 1971 Firebird with a 406 pontiac engine. Just about the same setup but adding a Paxton supercharger.
