It's called project cheap skate because it well has been carefully pieced together with a lot wheelin and dealin. For a whole lot nothing dough just lots of bruised knuckles and the ocational use of profanity.

I pieced the drivetrain for this bucket. Built the motor, rebuilt the supercharger, rebuilt the trans, just needs the rear.

Dont say anything about the seat covers and rims they are comming off asap. In addition to finishing off the cosmetics.

This is me finishing off the initial tune I just need to pull it out on the street and check it with a WB02.

rather high CR without an intercooler? i didnt see one but i coulda been wrong. Or is it safe, if so id run it as well. I learned and was always told 8.5-9.5 w/o an IC?

It's all about total timing type of gas and how you drive it (ie not hot lapping)

Yo 50charge do I even want to know why there is boost going into the crankcase from the TB to valve cover hose? I would drill and tap a fitting on the intake pipe after the maf hook the hose from the valve cover to this then cap off the TB

HP estimate not sure what are your guesses?
