Thanks Scorpio_man
 
That's MOB or Tony to his friends, I chat to him sometimes.
Yeap still going for that speed but not using the 3.7 engine now as I have discovered two problems.
1. The angle of the rods is such that on a blown engine I am going to get lots of wear on the side wall's of the pistons.
2. Also I am unable to drop the compression low enougth for high boost.
 
So now I am going to use a STD 2.9 block which will actually make more power than the 3.7 in turbo form.
