My butt dyno could not tell as I sat in the car with the engine revving between 2000-3000 for half an hour breaking in the cams.

We cant exactly drive this on the street. The dyno will show the difference, as will laps at Willow Springs during the next race.

Sorry, could you run by what else is done to this motor also along with the jun cams? Just as a reference.

The Production class rules are fairly restrictive to the newer cars like ours, but we can still open it up a little: intake/exhaust ports opened up to match intake/header to a depth of 1". Multi angle valve job. Head decked to get us closer to our 11-1 max compression ratio.

I have not seen the build sheet/bill yet. Without being able to CC everything (I did not send the bottom end so they could not measure the piston volume) I am sure they went conservative. I know the pistons don't slap the valves, happy about that.

So this--combined with reverting the final drive--should make you much more competitive than last season? How's the gearbox coming along?

The car still wont be a front runner in the dry, but it should be faster than the last two years.

Still waiting on the close ratio gear box.

The trans out of the 99 is in the shop for its new guts. With any luck I will have a close-ratio box by Friday.

We are making progress on the Kaaz close-ratio gear set. Kaaz USA was able to track down the synchros we need, and are making modifications to two of the gears for a proper fit. They have already successfully built one trans for the Scion rally team, and are working on our gears right now. We should have all the parts in hand before the end of the week.

I would imagine that means I will spend my weekend in the place I am getting way to familiar with, on the floor pulling a trans out.
