well from what i know it does spin a wee but but here is a comment made by someone who went in it
[B]'Just went for a ride in it...I'm still shaking from fear! I think my spleen came loose.'
also went on to say it was the fastest thing he had ever been in and wants to go in again, and if he had not had a piss b4 hand he would have.

The whole aim of the project was to keep it stock, that i think i did however i mixed it alittle with new and old s2k

thanks guys. that was my intention to keep it asstock looking as I could. ie dual exhaust rims etc.
The only haters would be people that don;t like the idea of forced induction, however, that would normally be a bolt on supercharger etc.. But, in your case you have completely 100% rebuilt the engine, with dedication and passion (and a trunk load of cash i would guess), so there is no way even anti force induction peeps cannot say you have not 'done it right'.. kudos to you for that.
If I had the cash and a willing wife I would do the same..

the missis was not always happy this end either
i have taken the time to do it properly, over a year, yes there are a few other things that could be done, but time and money are big factors
