Opps, I'm late. Should've read the whole thread...

You should strap a turbo on that bad boy, gives you some oomph just as your torque rise flattens...

Wow! I figured I'd be further down the list but I was pretty close. Only .38hp away....

Congratulations, Tinker!

Of course we all know that TonyG is the REAL winner in this thread. It looks like a great motor, especially when you get the A/F tweeked a little more. Thanks for a fun thread......again.

I stand corrected. I've amended the official results.

***** NOTICE *****

It looks like the winner is Tinker.

If someone wants to dispute Tinker as the winner, please do so now. The "dispute process" will close 1/20/2006 11:59pm PST.

If I don't see anybody disputing Tinker as the winner prior to the end of the "dispute process", Tinker will proceed to get paid his winnings, and this contest will be closed.

TonyG,

Thank you for the generous prize.

It will go to good use. I have a 3.0 in pieces that I am in the midst of purchasing parts for.

Enjoy that 290.44 horsepower monster.

Tinker
