Some updates. The red Jeep got wrecked last summer and I built a new one. Same drivetrain. Did pistons/rods and no other changes other than upping the boost. The little 5.7 and s366 keeps performing. Has been 10.90 @ 130 on the low profile Continental street tires and 10.38 @ 132.6 on a 28x10.5 slick. The 10.38 pass was actually very soft, only went 1.56 sixty foot because the clutch was on it's way out. Has been 1.46 so should go a good bit quicker with all that mph in the Spring.






Also drove it from Michigan to Atlanta, did Drag Week, and drove it home. 2805 miles in a week and 13 passes.


Have also done some autocrossing with it, you can see how linear the power is and how little lag the tiny turbo has.
