Anyone know if a torque plate is reusable? The builder gave me the one he made for my engine. it has stock bore size. I hate to just recycle it and I wont use it again.

well, I would probably charge a little for it (and shipping too, this thing weight a ton, I thought about putting it at the end of a pole and making a mace for home protection) Looking over my bill, my engine builder did charge me a crap load to make it. $100+shipping sounds reasonable to me (about 1/4 the cost I was charged). Let me know if you still want it.

Bolt on kit for an Atom or cobalt? Cobalt yes: http://www.turbosystem.com/New_Folde...ent%20Page.htm
Atom, most of a kit is avilable, still needs some custom stuff done

Amazing. I want one. I wonder how much it would take to build the FRAME for that car. I know where I can get an LSJ real cheap... I wanna make a Go-Kart/Atom like thing with it.
You should drive around in a Darth Vader outfit and have your passenger dressed as a Storm Trooper. I would LOL if I saw that.

LMAO!!
This is the best thing I've seen in a while.
I'm definitely going to have to say, WAAAY cooler than Rob's build but that's just because I'm a road course type of guy
I think I speak for all of us when I say we want videos of this thing tearing a track a new a-hole!

with the help of a friend who made a very good guess as to a tune for this beast the car was up and running today. It will make a trip next week to Reno for an Atomclub meet to show off the custom work by my builder. Then back home next weekend. As soon as I get a chance after that I'll take it to the dyno for some further tuning.
Holy cow Im so happy it did not blow up when they started it
Finished engine pics. I'll post up the dyno and some video when that part gets done
