Wow! Just Wow! Looks fantastic Craig. Who did the powder coating? Is that a holley or Edelbrock intake?
Thanks!Quote:

Its a Holley Low-Ram.
Cool! That's the same intake I have on intergalactic backorder currently, along with the Holley pan. Keep at it, can't wait til we are both done and racing them.Quote:

I cant get the car into any shops until late Aug, early Sept, so I figured I could just keep mocking up shit to pass the time. I was hoping to make at least one hit Late Fall, but that pipe dream is fading away fast. :(
Craig, it's looking great! What are you needing to get it into a shop for? To finish the turbo kit?
Turbo kit finished up. CM cage finished up. TRZ tubular frontend installed. New Alum fuel tank fab'd up and some other items Im probably forgetting.Quote:

True. Ive already written off this year with the Mustang. Which is actually kinda nice, as now there is no rush or Thrashing needing to happen.Quote:

My buddy Scotty. Was a nitrous LS 408. Now the only thing that is the same from that setup is the color of the car. Everything has changed. Front to back.Quote:
