WTG Jeff- I saw ya out there and wanted to bend your ear for awhile, but you were super busy and I didn't want to be a pain.

I had a ball in the wagon out there, but you were playing hardball. Glad it all worked toward a win!

Good work Jeff!!!!

I called Jeff early April and asked if he wanted to do Power Tour this year.. and we hatched a plan on the spot.... and it was finished for Power Tour 8 weeks later!!! http://www.schwartzperformance.com/p...x?projectid=27 ..... I live in Hong Kong, the car lives with Jeff. The deal is that he can beat on the car whenever we wants in exchange for garaging the car for me, and I come over a few times a year to beat on it with him. We're going to keep doing silly **** to the car in the neverending quest for speed.

Next on the list is a pair of turbos. I have an Ultima GTR with a 580hp Magnacharged LS2 that I used to think was fast... that was until I drove Jeff's Ultima for one day on Power Tour... Im now totally hooked on Twin Turbo power.....so this slutty little Temptress is gonna cop a blower job soon.... we'll have to change her name to Temptress Blow-Her

Scott, did you figure out what caused the problem with your starter?

Ya- the key in the dash got stuck in the 'start' position when I let my friend drive it. So the starter was running with the engine for awhile...until it all went up in smoke! LOL!

No biggie. It's all fixed now.

I know a guy that can get you a good deal on a Procharger F2!!

But I think a roots blower would be better for that car and it's engine setup.

Noice job boss!!!!! That may have been the fastest build in Jeff's career.

Congrats Jeff.
I love the Temptress.

I just got the call from Jeff Smith at Car Craft, after tallying the results, Schwartz customer Grant Craft's 1965 Tempest, aka "Temptress" has won the Real Street Eliminator event held in St Paul this past weekend.
It features the new mandrell bent A body chassis with Bilstein coilovers, Baer Brakes. A Schwartz built normally aspirated LS9, with Wiseco Pistons, K1 rods, LS7 Dry sump.
Thanks

Congrats Jeff! It was cool to see the car in action. I was glad you were able to knock off the kid in the Audi R8.

Of course the kid didn't have any of my duct tape in his trunk ;-)

congrats. I remember the caddy from 02. I thought that car was badass

Thanks, It wasn't easy. Although I did dominate the autocross once I got the car dailed in on day 2. The dyno challenge took a lot of last minute work going up against big blocks, a 572 and a 502 with NOS.

Congrats Jeff, what other events are planned for Temptress?

[jeff s]

Grant is coming over from Hong Kong and we're doing run Through the Hills and I may make a suprise appearance at a Goodguys Autocross Event.
