Finally, a GT350 with forced induction doing some type of brisk acceleration. I swear 2 years ago lethals supercharged GT350 was suppose to do something, and I waited... Several more boosted GT350s came in that time, and still I waited... Finally for this glorious day. Thank you to all involved in pulling off this impossible feat. Ford, the buyer, the builder, the event organizer, the recorder, the poster of the video.I'll just leave this here...
GT350 Procharged VS. Corvette Z06
(It wouldn't let me upload it to the forum)

I was just going off the video description. Said 923.boosted vs boosted, Vette is lighter, they use a Dynapack so its not 900 to the wheels. A similar car at the same boost and e85 has hit 830 on a mustang. Vette is also an Auto so it is interesting to see what the car can really do with the Procharger. It didnt appear he was raging on it hard. Wonder if its stock clutch etc.
I agree I ordered a Mcleod RXT clutch and had to send it back. Mcleod thought the stacking height was the same as a GT, its not. The clutch stays near the floor and takes up really quick since there is less throw out bearing distance on the Shelby. Leathal says theirs is working fine and they are the beta testers so nobody knows why. Since their's was working on the tester everyone else got the same thing but its not working right everyone else sent theirs back in. Awesome customer service by Mcleod just have to give it time to be sorted out. I was told an RXT HD in its current config could only handle 600-650hp rather than the 1200hp its rated for due to the clamping pressure with its current stacking height. Frank or Fred I can't remember said they already did the single example and sent that out for mass production so maybe next month the right one will be out.That's a possibility because I forgot. McLeod has had issues with the clutch. Maybe that's why he wasn't raging on it. Had the driver power shifted the pounding would of been worse. But overall a win is a win. And yes I know people, were comparing a modified gt350 vs a stock vett.
Know how many miles were on the car B4 the procharger ?First known issue, guy broke a Cam cap, Lifter, he was at 830ish to the wheels on e70
maybe a defective cap, maybe a bit of bolt stretch / vibration.
Thats gonna bee se bigggggg $Indeed, looks like crank gear took a shit first, then as they say, all hell broke loose. could have been worse. It was on a dyno with folks watching closely so at least there is that. Now he is going full build.
