Wonder What Happened to Thundercat?

Have seen TKs ad, but I wonder why he is saying it is good for anyone with a twin-screw kit, as it is not needed for mine. The little these injectors give over stock can also be achieved via other (low cost) means, and for what he wants (750 HP) he needs much bigger injectors, so some bad (costly) advice TK got there. Given the trail on error nature they seem to be in now, I would say at least another 3 months, possibly much more before they get it right, unless bip steps up the pace after all it isn’t rocket science… But to give a date, I would say April 1st, but I guess that isn't with the power levels they suggested.
TK, any updates?

HAHA!!! JK DOOOD. we're shooting for the 700 mark. We shall see. Block has been drilled and tapped for head studs and is back in the shop today. Will be put together next week then we start on mocking up the supercharger manifold and plenums. As soon as we get it together i'm gonna post some pics. should have some of the block and studs today. The machine work is done and that should illeviate the hold ups. (knock on wood). I have no idea when it will be finished. I wouldnt dare guess on a finish date. I'm in no hurry. It will be done when it's done. I wanna see your build!! is there any pics online? Sounds pretty awesome with the ground up restoration. Cheers!

Has anyone heard even a meow from the Thundercat/Thunderkitten ?? It seems as though he has fallen off the face of the earth. Maybe he has given up & is having one of these conversions done.
Jaguar V8 Kit
Then he would just need to figure out how to make it still look like a Jaguar engine. Thundercat where are you ?????

there are some new pics on the company that is supposedly doing the build's fb page, they were added to the album Jan 26
Looks to be some very intense stuff, I can imagine this will be quite the car when finished

You bet. Its been a long time, i know. We are getting to the home strech. You saw pictures of the runners and stacks. The intake and boost coolers are going to be a different config, so there wont be the "supercharged" block coolers on either side of the charger. Injectors are in. Headers are done and are waiting to go on. 3" high flow exhaust will be replacing the borla system. All thats left now is the fun part of tuning and tweaking. there should be alot more info and pics over the next week or two.
