I welded every seam in front of the firewall. Cage will take care of the rest. maybe a seem or two in other places.
First used sand. Then Soda. Neither one were that quick. Ended up using Wire wheels and such. Sound deadening still caught fire about 15 times. (opposite sides and things)
Just couldnt work hard enough to get the metal completely clean in front of and behind and in-between. So I just stayed prepared for fire. - Car is just a shell anyway. not even 1 wire left. WHICH by the way weighed in another 20lbs. Might put back 5.
I'm going to post this on my project Thread. Sorry for the hijack!

I hope to be able to let you know what real max will be this year
I will be running a 70 plus Lb per min turbo with a ported head, intake mods, TB, na cam a few other bolt on items. Knowing I can run over 30 psi with less items it should do pretty well.
Also I think Bruce should really be mentioned here since he still was using a stck longblock and made more HP than has been posted

If only intake/exhaust can be changed I suppose 95one/Bruce has the top numbers?
Markus' old engine that ended up in my car did make 495 rwhp with stock internals/head. That was at 1.3 bar. I can promise you I made some record numbers when the same engine overboosted to 1.8 bar
Although short lived at that boost
Edit: I turned it to 11!!!!

Didn't tool have a stock head, cam, longblock when he made 475@wheels?
And yeah, Marcus' motor proved many of my personal guesses. - It rocks.
Did that motor have shorter piston skirts? isn't that part of what made it slap around in there?

rod failure or bolt failure???
so the verdict is back and we have not realy found the limit of the 968 pistons ??that were previously blamed .
hard to say what realy happened and one conponent flexing to much can lead to a chain reaction and another part breaking .
bore movement crank flex bolt stretch
