I filmed and my friend edited up this video.

This is from awhile back before the Lightning switched to a Whipple. It has a VT Shortblock (garbage), Fox Lake Heads, Comp Cams, Kenne Bell 2.2 17 PSI, NX 75 Shot, LT's with cats, MT Radials vs Broke7 in the 03 Cobra with Steggy Ported Eaton, mid pipe, catback, ET Streets. The record holder for 1/4 mile with a Eaton Cobra with IRS without nitrous. He ran a 10.89@127 in the 1/4, car made 544 rwhp in race trim but arounf 510-520 in street trim. They ran from a 40 roll. The first run we got sideways pretty bad in the Cobra, was cold out.

The second run we spun off the hit but not as bad and let off around 125 and you can see how the Lightning was moving. :eek: :shock:

The Lightning switched to a Whipple and ran 6.73@103.97 in the 1/4 with some issues, it could run faster but the crank broke in it, sucks. :(

They sent him the wrong cams, the cams were timed wrong, the head bolts werent even all tight, the ring gaps were wider than what they told him and to top it off the crank broke here recently, probably has something to do with the fact they hammered the fuggin balancer on.

Another local who owns a shop that SELLS VT shortblocks has had his engine fail TWICE right after it started up.

VT doesnt do heads, they are done through Fox Lake, he got the whole longblock from them but it was Fox Lake that did the heads.
