Great Klaus:

By next week you will have an entirely different vehicle----Do you have a local dragstrip near by to do a 1/4 mile run? It is the only way I have found to really find out if it is making good power. Dynos are fine but the 1/8 and 1/4 mile numbers tell all. If and when you go, just drive it as from a stop light at full throttle.

I broke my front driveshaft on my first run by applying the brake and ramping up RPMs to 2000 at the start line----good thing though, the front driveshaft was defective and would have broken off road as well-like when pulling up a steep incline.
