No N/a KA is going to trap 116mph.

He is using nitrous.

For future reference N/A with Nitrous is still N/A. It's N/A with a power adder.

All motor = N/A with no power adder (ie nitrous, propane, etc) FI = super/turbo charger.

One of steves buddies sent me that clip quite some time ago, I didnt help make it or anything just hosted it so others can see.

Yes he is running nosPorted intake manifold, p&p head ferrea valves/springs. Some oldschool jwt cams if i recall. Fully forged bottom end with custom pistons (flycut). He is running a custom transmission, its not a sainz, i forget what it is but popular with the mustang/camaro t5 croud.

Youd be surprised what this thing does NA, especially in the 60ft and 1/8 mile.

edit: Its 5 spd last time I knew (although 6spd race transmissions t5 style arent hard to come by) and ka24de. And no I dont mind at all that you posted or asked.
