Jacob, you have a PM answer.
Please be VERY cautious/careful.

[/quote]ALWAYS AND FOREVER, Eddie! (In response to the Old Geezer smiley giving wise advice, there ought to be a corresponding baby-wearing-diaper-sucking-a-pacifier-listening-raptly-to-Wise-Advice smiley)
And if I start feeling like I am "hero driver" I will always go back to the YouTube videos of your crashes and remind myself that even Hero Drivers (like you) can crash, and therefore I will learn wisdom.
Thanks a ton!
Jacob :-)

We were blessed with selling three more Ariel Atoms last month, and the motorcycle/ATV/sportquad part of our business sold 52 vehicles last month, so taking care of business continues to keep me from spending as much time as it is taking to "finish" my Ecotec hop-up, but there is some progress.

It is together and running, has favored me with my fastest speed ever, at Eagles Canyon Raceway, Decatur, Texas, and it survived a horrible overspeed, 11,018 RPM! when my clutch turned loose under full throttle at 130 mph. I doubled the holding capacity of the clutch, and development goes on. Now working on trying to make the intercooler system more efficient, which is proving a real challenge.
However, the performance is thrilling!

How is your intercooler set up at the moment Eddie? Do you still utilise the standard air intake through the rollover hoop or have you relocated the air filter elsewhere?

Think some V8 side pods and 2 separate intercoolers are needed Eddie. Or air to water and heat exchanger.

Nice, I'm really warming to the idea of some wings. Perhaps in the future...
