This car came to
us from South Carolina as a SOHC automatic. The owner had
owned car for many years and knew he had a good base to
start with. Rather than add all the available bolt-ons that
might net him a total of 15 hp (if he was lucky), he opted
for a twin cam conversion (25 hp stronger than the single
cam). To give the owner a true sports car feel, we added an
mp3 transmission, making it a manual. The car took a total
of 18 hours to complete. To finish off the project, a twin
cam 130 mph speedometer with 7k rpm tach was installed
(wouldn't want all that extra power with a 110 mph single
cam gauge cluster!)
When car was
finished, its "test" run was from south Florida to south
Carolina! No problems, no mishaps, no breakdowns, the way it
should be. We thank Jason Thomas for giving us the
opportunity to provide him with TKT-003 and we hope he
enjoys many more years of ownership with his Saturn. |
