Quazar Blue is a stock color. But wouldn't know myself if he had it repainted. Tony?

Stock Quasar blue. I'm condering the C5 Electron blue, though. It's a very nice blue. I like the Quasar just fine, though...

Thanks Adam. Good luck with the 406. Miami is at sea level, so you should have some great times on that monster.

That looks like an XE cam torque curve

Awesome power man, you use to live in Houston? I see from your page you bought your car from Bill Heard in Sugar Land.

Yea, lived there most of my life. Went to Sam Houston HS and UH. Worked for WorldCom in the Woodlands until 7 years ago when one of my ex-bosses lured me to Boulder during the dot.com days. Colorado sure beats Texas in the summer, but I miss Houston. I've got tons of friends there and there's nowhere that has a better car scene.

I'm supposed to keep it secret, so it's hidden under the Schneider logo on my home page... Don't tell anyone...

How was the injector duty cycle? Still using the 42lb lucas injectors? Stock ECM or an aftermatket ECU like FAST?

Thanks

Stock ecm, 42lb lucas, not sure about the duty cycle. I'll try to remember to check...

I'd certainly be interested to know. Also what kind of fuel pressure? I have the same injectors and looking to see where they might max.

thanks

keep in mind this is at high altitude. I would guess that 42s will not handle that much power at sea level!

That's very true. We don't need as much fuel up here, but we do need more air.

Sorry... but i have a question... or maybe I disagree..

power is power... power needs fuel and more or less the same/ammount of air.. so.. either the engine is very efficient or 42 will hold the same power either sea level or 10000' in elevation...

Fuel is liquid and at pressure should be unaffected by ambient pressure...

If air is thinner its still the same MASS of air needed to support the power.. Engine are pumps...

Feel free to correct me.

Sounds good to me. Add on top of that you are still looking at 14psi that prety much takes care of the atmospheric differential. 42lbs with enough fuel pressure should handle the 750hp (flywheel that he is making)
