Unless someone on here has a gulf stream, I think you win.  :cup:

He would be a clear winner if his post went like this.

Yeah, but has he raced it yet?

The drag strip is best place to test dyno figures.

IF it was mine, it would've on the track 10 minutes into the ownership.

It's OK I guess  ;)

But the Chiko Roll Chick would make it even better. (Except for sitting on the bonnet)

Did you import yourself?

yeah imported myself, have to agree with you on the Kenne Belle, but the Ford Racing supercharger is much smoother for daily driving. It will still send you to a
Chiropractor if you jump on it.

That's a horn looking Car, you should be very proud of it.
How things have changed in the horsepower stacks these days though.

Once, if you said you had 800HP at the rears, people would have fell about laughing.... but now.... holy mother of god.

Its not that hard to do, and its reliable and driveable.

Sh!t, we run a 14:06 in the early 80's '\ at Surfers in a mk11 Zephyr and had 445HP in a Datsun 1200 in the early 90's, which was more fun than should be allowed and yeah, it was a streeter.  ;D  >:D

I'll try to lift a photo or two of stuff I've owned or been involved with over the years on the week-end.

Duggie, awesome looking Calais mate.  Love the vk's, not sure about the spoiler on the boot but that's ok. It's different, and you look like you've done an awesome job overall. Thanks for sharing, makes me want to go buy one now to do up.. Already done a vb and a vc in my time.
