You certainly wouldn't have to add any time soon, that's for sure.

Dirt is for racing,
Asphalt is for
getting there.

Hey, but once the smoke cleared, 2nd place wasn't too bad for starting 20th.  I can't wait to see the video of my James Bond style smoke screen.

Did you get everything fixed Ben?  I would recommend not catching on fire next race.   Cheesy

Repairing the exhaust leak which caused it.

Replaced burnt power steering hose.

Put in ELECTRICAL oil pressure guage, NO little hose to run by the motor.

Now,  IF I could just find a can of HORSEPOWER to add so I can run up with the BMW's and Toyotas.

For Ben you can go to racetep.com.  You may have to give them a call.  They play around with that 2.6L.  And I'm not talking about their turbo kit for your truck.  They have other, more mild "stuff".

For Patch, Speedway Motors has several pages dedicated to your car.  Just go to the mini stock/pony car section.  I hate when they call 'em pony cars.  Smiley
