I'm afraid I don't really have much on this. It was campaigned at Bonneville by a man named "Robert". It used an an Air Research Turbo with 18lbs of boost, Hillborn direct Injection and ran on methanol. Supposedly hit 201 mph at 6,700 rpm. Shovel top end on a Pan bottom end. I believe the class he ran was APSPBF - special construction, partial streamlined, supercharged fuel. He said "2000" for the displacement class but, being a Pan/Shovel, that just cannot be true. I bet it was 1350, since he says it was a dead stock Pan bottom end. Sorry, that's all I've got.
