Sorry not too many updates at this time my job has been taking all my time.
What I have been doing is testing my newest version pre-chamber on my other car the Talon. The new data I'm getting will be passed onto the Camaro.

I will be finishing up testing the separate turbo system in a few weeks and put up a short YouTube video.

Thanks for your interest.

Here is a pic I took of my test bench that I have been testing flow two turbos vs one, pressure pre-turbo from pump to turbo center cartridge and post turbo to check pressure on the return side.

Interesting. On a sidenote, as pre-chambers are quite unusual to say the least when it comes to gassers, this setup reminds me the way a 2-stroke gasser has its intake flow going through the crankcase prior to getting transfered to the cylinders.

I remembered the separate turbo oiling system precisely after looking at some ancient cars (and scooters) with 2-stroke engines, and talking about them with a friend who is less mechanically-inclined.

Sure a collector wouldn't feel so tempted to turbocharge a fully stock beauty like this one...



But it would be quite tempting to try something with an outboard motor or a dirt-bike.

' ride height '

I believe that lowering the ride height to the lowest allowed by the SCTA rulebook, was part of Gary Eaker's aerodynamic bag-of-tricks for the HOT ROD MAGAZINE's, Project Red Hat, Cd 0.201 Camaro, 200+ MPH, Bonneville LSR car.
