LT-1 : Currently at fabricator, jigs completed, mandrel pipe now being fitted.

ZR-1 : Waiting it's turn to go to fabricator (right after the LT-1 leaves) for jig development and mandrel piping install. Raptor is having a 372 cu in, 9:1 built for up to 15 psig boost. The first engine will go in R.H.'s 91 ZR-1. After the concept engine is proven, then J.D. (me) will send spare 4 bolt main engine to builder for same build to install in LPE Aerobody Zee.

We fully expect to have both the LT-1 & LT-5 turbo prototypes at Bowling Green this year.
