Hello Jim,
I don't know if they still do, but that's the same combo the Lauffers used to run in their cars. On the street. Minus the mechanical injection though, they still used IDAs. They were running 94/88 motor with a V8  fogger system, converted to a two stage 4 cylinder system. Good enough for low tens to high nines. Yahoo!

Have they run this combo  before?  If so ,  How'd it do?  
Or what are they hoping for?
