Thanks for the post Ron. Are you still making the ECM from Mega-squirt available?

Ron good to hear from you. Looks like your in TX now, did you retire there? Still playing with the ZR-1’s or have you moved on?
All the best
Hans

I am just east of Denver, CO. My ZR1 is at Henderson Performance at New Braunfels, TX just finishing up a twin turbo project.

Was there last weekend, how far east of Denver? If you get a chance look up Rod Dewild he is doing some cutting edge engine stuff.

I live in a little town on I70 called Limon. Is DeWild still working on LT5's? I know he did a automatic conversion for his Dad a few years ago.

Hey Hans!

I retired from Lockheed Martin last June. It only took a few months for me to decide to go back to work. I moved to Alamogordo NM for 7 months teaching guys to fly the F-16 again. My Mrs didn't like the area so she moved back to our house in Fort Worth. I followed after finding a jog at the local Reserve F-16 squadron running the Simulator's. There's 4 cockpits networked together. Pretty nice system and a real fun job...

I still have two Z's. The 93' Ruby from Hawaii that I'm going to convert to a convertible as soon as Brett has time to get to it (busy guy...) And then I have the 91 Twin Turbo still. I finally put them on a "stacker" in the garage under cover. I pull them out once a month and run them to temp and drive them around the block... I also added a 1961 all original Vette to the stable as well. Drives like crap but I have a lot of fun with it. Drive her to work once a week if the weather permits... I plan to drive the Ruby more once it's converted.

Cheers from Fort Worth... Hope all is well with you...

Corey Henderson just let me know the Raptor twin turbo will have its final testing tomorrow then will be ready for delivery. He settled for right at 600 rwhp after hitting 650. Dropped it back to preserve the engine. He was not sure about torque , but thought about 580.
Car is now officially for sale. $22,500.

My daughter just told I can't sell the car, therefore the car is not for sale at this time.
