Wait on that video... The engine was running lean and wasn't optimum.. Lets get it perfect before we start letting the world see it :-)

We are all excited to see your new engine, one question... does the DME learns by itself the optimal fuel maps (with a now larger displacement) after running for a while?

Gilles,
You saw the engine apart in my clean room during the class you attended here. It was that beast with the huge bore that I would;t answer any questions about :-)
The DME will learn, but we use different injectors and will have to tune it after it logs some break in miles. This thing revs so fast that I typically have to slow down the factory pedal mapping so the car is drivable in the rain!

That's what I call a quality problem! Blipping the throttle for downshifts could get interesting too.

rfuerst, please let me tell you that it wasn't easy.. 
As I keep following Jake until he finally was by himself and ask him to take me to the CLEAN room to see his 'personal projects' once inside it reminded me of something out of 'Lockheed Martin's sterile satellite assembly room'...

Haha it's funny you bring up Lockheed Martin that's where I work but in the Aero division in Marietta. I was the first " outsider " allowed into the Jake Raby Monroe GA. facility and I was blown away. Jake doesn't do anything half assed and that facility is just amazing. Everything very well thought out it truly is setup for an " engine surgeon " . I have said many times we Georgians are very lucky to have him in our backyard. I doubt I would have gone forward with this build with anyone else.
But back to my car it is with great anticipation that I wait for that first test drive that I take with Jake. I know the car will be a little rough because it will not have a final tune when I pick it up. Jake and I have agreed to pick the car up in this condition so the car can learn as I put on some break in miles. At some point in time Jake and I will agree it's time to turn her back in. At that time dyno tuning and results will be recorded. I'll get the car back and drive some more miles and then she'll be turned in for the final time. That's when the Raby in house camshafts will be installed and final tuning/dyno results will be recorded. So this is going to play out over the next 2 - 4 months but it will be fun I can't wait for some top down driving on local mountain roads rowing up and down the gears and hearing " the beast " bark through that lovely exhaust !
