Going new direction and decided to upgrade the power adder to a 88M turbo combo. This will be a max effort build with a few exceptions...still going to keep "some" creature comforts...ie interior MUST be kept...with NO hackery...lol
I will "occasionally" drive it on the street as I do like to hit a cruise once in a while and make a few weekend rides so that will be a must.

I have since pulled the motor and drivetrain...sold the F1a and will be upgrading my rods as well. Current combo is a stroked 4.6 with Manley 5.85 rods with upgraded ARP bolts. I do plan on making north of 1000 HP so I have decided to upgrade the rods while I have the motor out.

Few pics of progress...
