So can we have a few more facts about your car?

[TazN]

Was not convinced - I now am What height can they go to safely?

[BAre]

The hight is preset in the type of airjack. This is 230 mm lifters. It is comon to put a 4" x 4" woodstik under to really lift hight when needed. I can demonstrate later one day. The VX220 is a 234 bhp ITB

Patriot racehead
Comp 264 cams 15 crankdegree off (retard due to clearence problem)
AT Power 42 mm ITB
Homemade exhaust 58 mm ID
Homemade headders tuned to exhaust cam and valves

At this time the headder design is modified, increased ID exhaust 60 mm, new 258 inlet cam retarded only 4 degree and less obstructive inlet filter design is awaiting rolling road. Hoping for 250 bhp.
Also fitted brand new 4.17 gearbox to aid better accelratione http://i1203.photobu...ng/IMG_0746.jpg http://i1203.photobu...ing/exhaust.jpg

Do the jacks lock out when extended or do you need constant pressure to keep them out?

[VIX]

Is there anybody out here who has made the same modificatione?

The Colin Blower GT car had them:

[BAre]

_{Those looked to lift hight! The airpressure is keeping the car raised. I use a stop valve, but AP Racing is selling locktubes to slip on to the piston arm.}
