Congrats!
Reminds me of you Gary motivating me with your first 24 Sonic many many years ago. LOL. I purchased my Velocity with twin outboards after following your posts on S&F. Hopefully this build thread will motivate someone to restomod a classic like your Pantera Nick.

Great job Nick! I had no idea the lengths you went through, you said redoing it, you really did! Came out great!

What a cool build and a great read! Also, is there anything "not cool" in that shop of yours, the background pix of some of the toys are sweet! Great job!

Very nice work. You can really see the attention to detail you put into it. I know you are still tuning etc but wanted to know if the engine was dyno tuned and if yes what did it make and where did it make it? Did you have a wot rpm target? I am thinking the LS should be around 6000 wide open? Looking forward to seeing you getting it dialed in.

Thanks! Right around 6k is what I’m looking for maybe a little more. With the LSA blower it makes gobs of torque down low so mid range is awesome.
