Dont know but would have loved to find out but he poofed it on the new build and broke it
I think his best time was a 10.3 on gas and think he ran a high ten off gas.

It was in the May 07 Performance Ford when i had it.Pukka engine but still not quite doing that much power and torque when i had it.Had a Sport box,70 in 1st,so it was difficult to launch with that big turbo.I really wanted to put that motor into the Puma but the wife went apeshit.Should have done it anyway and told her where to go.

I think it was ony the back carpet and back seats that were removed Andy, still had all electrics and front interior. The new shell he had was fully caged with no sunroof,no door internals and poly windows, dont know how much lighter it would have ended up.

Think it was about 580hp on pump and 620 ish on race. On the Gumball we reved the life out of it and it didn't miss a beat, the more we reved it the more it seemed to want
