take a look at the airflow under the car.....
Flat rear will help but look at the huge airbrake you have now made with your large rear bumper overhanh :S
iirc LuckyB did some bumperwork to help this on his 106 hillclimb car.
A rear diffuser working with a complete flat undertray may help

Some pics of todays progress:
First off, this is proof that i do actually work on it:
and this is the reason why there has been little or no updates on this in a long while:
the valve cut outs in the pistons were no way near big enough for the lift on the cams, so aftwer a fair amount of machining and i now have really big pockets in my pistons
some pics of the fuel lines in the car:
inside the car is a big messy to say the least but work in progress is never tidy
secured the oil lines:
started putting the dasy back together so i can wire it up again:
electric water pump controller mounted
i will be mounting the ecu next to this
some pics of the cam belt area:
i think that looks awesome!
some randoms:
in this one you can see the water pipe we made, will be getting it powder coated on monday, not sure if i do it yellow or not yet
and the front
