lol , nope
It’s for car that the engine is a Chrysler 4 cyd that started its life as a 1.6 found in many model vehicles that currently is in one of my cars that puts over 400hp (conservative) at the wheels (I have never posted the actual numbers anywhere ). The transmission is highly modified with PG spec ordered semi cut gears with specific gear ratio and posi carrier to handle about 1000 hp . The board controls the 2 Nitrous Oxide Systems , the custom 4 coil 24 volt ignition system with 4 MSD HVC-2 coils .
oh and a very kool flame system that is completely separate of any other system having its own fuel injection into the exhaust and igniting control (yellow coil)
It’s a street car…fully licensed and insured.. It’s illegal to run on any sanctioned Drag Track unless they have an exhibition event .

nope.. But it does have a very personal plate and one off custom CA license plate.
I don't want to cutter (hijack) you thread with another couple of pictures that are not thread related. Now if you (we) start to talk about gauges then I may be able to contribute?

I do not recognize the act of hijacking on any thread I post. I couldn't care less...

My deal is no one around me... family or friends... no one shares my interests. Even the kids want to build CPU's and gaming computer set-ups only. They only care if a car runs or not, period. It is ignored until it doesn't work.

I play video games but only if I am stuck inside. Like an injury or sick. Mr. NeverPlea is the name, been around for about 3 decades online.

Otherwise, if I didn't want to talk about it. I ignore it. 😇

I just post whatever I am doing. And see if anyone cares to comment on it or answer any questions quicker than I can look them up. If I find a solution, I try to make it cheaper.

The wife and I, live frugal. By choice. This is to take long periods off work.
We both are interested (in life) about our hobbies and projects and as much time at home as possible. I even order groceries, so I do not have to leave home.

She is a crafter, with a collection to rival my tools, parts and the like.

I am always open to any discussion. If not, I simply go back to turning bolts and stuff.

😆 Plywood...

Thanks for pulling the cover. Looks like there is a car cover over it. Or did you just dig up the photo from the file?

If anyone is interested...
these roller rockers exist for the d series honda. Also some HF model crx cars had them. Takes 2 sets to do the exhaust side. There are no compatible ones for the intake side. I ran them on my crx, many years ago.

Made some small progress today. Also forgot to take pictures about halfway through. Anyway...






Talkie words, blah blah... more pics




I need to reuse the head, mainly out of convenience. 😆






Forgot about the ARP studs and y8 headgasket...



Recovered that fun flywheel...





Flipped shortblock... talkie words, blah blah...





Poof... crankshaft retrieved!







That's it, by the time I cleaned everything up. It was dark.

Tomorrow is disassembly of the shortblock from the White car. Light honing and cleaning everything up for reassembly. I may try to accomplish most of it during daytime and then move into the laundry room with the clean parts for overnight assembly.

This week is flying by! 😳
