Hi Sandy in BC
I am relatively new to this forum so I am not aware of the destruction of a rare , vintage automobile. Can you fill me in so that I can be better prepared to intelligently respond.
Ken

They are not Toyota seats! I wouldn't do that. Heaven forbid! The seats are from an 86 Chrysler. I put them in 25 years ago. The donor car was totalled with only 3500 miles on it so the seats were in beautiful condition and I could not resist buying them.
Keep the faith,
Ken

I am using a Schweitzer turbo with 68mm wheel which will produce 47.5 lbs/min at 2.4 pressure ratio which should equal 406 HP corrected for temp rise and fuel type. I plan on limiting the p/r to 2.2 which will drop the hp to approx. 380 @ 5500 RPM. I am still playing with the fuel delivery, so I have not exceeded 1.8 P/R which makes for a very fun ride. The tires will not hook up even with the current pressure.
More later,
Ken
