Put the Triumph up on the dyno at Powercruise and made 788 HP and 791 torque at 20 psi boost. The big engine small cam deal is working really well now that the converter is right and I have the 4 speed auto 4L80.
Looking forward to a trip to the drag strip.
Amazing! Congratulations!
How much else has changed since your <a href="http://www.britishv8.org/Triumph/EdOlson.htm">
How It Was Done</a> article?
Does your Triumph still look like this?

Wow!
Still looks the same, a little nicer on the inside.
Have a Fast XFI controlling my injectors instead of the blowthru carb.
Now has a 488" engine, 400 Pontiac block with a 4.5" stroke.
How streetabe is that beast?
I drive it a lot in nice weather, it get a little warm inside and has no window.
Drove 1100+ miles last year on Dragweek
This speaks for itself. WOW!

Me too
Got a video from Powercruise a week ago, arm drop no prep 1/8 mile pass, the engine you here is mostly the big tire, BBC powered, nitrous hot rod. I took 3rd out of about a dozen cars.
