Dave (detour), how much boost are you running? I am currently tuned to 10 psi, but have seen 15 psi, which is the goal ... for now.

I was at 14-16psi for the 503 dyno. The engine self destructed in the 2003 Gumball with the 16psi. So better safe than sorry. I put in the big yellow springs to reduce it so that it is a bit more "reliable". I am right around 9-10psi.

Your car is amazing. Post more pictures of it. I don't think too many people have seen the amount of work you have put into it on this board.

By “popular demand”, here are a few more pictures of my Jalpa.

Pic #1: Intended configuration of the engine. Unfortunately the coil-on-plug configuration did not work with Electromotive’s TEC-3
Pic #2: One new gauge (see if you can spot it)
Pic #3: I got the OEM rear wheels widened to 10”. The wheel wells could probably take 12”, but then it would be almost impossible to find appropriate 16” tires.
Pic #4: The installed engine in working order
Pic #5: Among friends in Palm Springs, CA

Here is a reference to some of the activities necessary to get there:

No Jalpa was harmed during that photo session. I moved it out to get the sleds out for the kids. It does feel like it would do ok in the snow though. Maybe it's the tractor engineering coming out!

Some I got from the owner after a complete engine rebuild
