Hi All,
First time on the forum so to introduce the car, a 1960 MK2 Ford Zodiac running a supercharged chevy 350 V8 with nitrous. The car was put back on the road August this year. Hope you like it.

Hi
Thanks for that. Its a B&M blower, quite a small one but thats a deliberate move to keep everything under the bonnet. 14.7 with a terminal of 96 mph but plenty of tweeking to do - should get me in the low to mid 13's without too much concern.

Ever had it dynoed? Just like to know 'cos I fear my BHP might be in the special TVR units or just USA 'my little ponies'
Anyway nice to see another Chebby here!

Not had it dynoed yet, still playing with all them screws and things, I am racing again this weekend and as soon as I am happy with it all I will book some time with the men in funny white coats with their wires and monitors and see what the readings are. Speak soon
