haa yeh runs like 400 of gas lol
makes nearly 1000hp aspirated though, somewhere around 850-950rwhp.
he reckons the manners of the car are so incredible, he changes the fuel pump back to the holley black, drops the race fuel out of the tank, changes the tyres over and puts the pipes on, and drives it to work in the traffic
Just ran his PB of 7.82 and claims australias fastest genuine street car!

Top car and i work with Mark and is a down to earth guy as well.
He said the setup in the car now is good for a 7.5. Not bad for a 3350lb street car.

thats what i last read, but ELA-RE said his setup is now good for 7.50's, which i would assume means he's gonna dump more gas into it

29-05-07, 18:24 GMT+10#19 I'm pretty sure it's a 632 cuber and first stage is 350hp. When he did his pb recently, he only activated the second stage at about half track i believe and the the first stage was about 40% worth, as he has a progressive nitrous controller.
From memory, he said that one run was all over the place, so for the next run, he ran less nitrous and ended up running a PB. So with the car running 100%, should do a mid 7.
I can always double check and let yas know tomorrow
