Looks great! Have fun!

Rob, very nice. What ratio?
Its got 3.89's, with a locker and 35 spline axles. I also went for the 4channel abs/tcs option, LCA relocation brackets and the drain plug option. I would have gone true track but it wouldn't have been enough. Since the TTP meet, I've change my dry nitrous kit around to a wet kit and had the car retuned. On the bottle the car made 590 ft/lbs @ 4200 rpm on a mustang chassis dyno. After that I was sure a true track wasnt goning to cut it in a 3700lb over weigh car. I kno, my car needs to go on a diet. Hell, I need to go on a diet:lol:.

Wow, sounds like the exact setup I want for my car. Those gears should be awesome for the strip and still maintain great hwy mpg.

Well I got the rest of the little parts needed to install my Moser rear. I started on it around noon and finished around 7ish. I snapped a few pics, didnt really have the time to document the entire install. You'll have to excuse some of the fuzzy pics, sometime my phone takes crappy pics.
Freshly painted gloss black!

Still waiting on my UMI torque arm and sfc's.
the driveshaft looks pretty close to the exhaust.

the driveshaft looks pretty close to the exhaust.
I losened and adjusted the the exhaust and gained some clearence. I wasnt too worried about that, once the car is set back on the ground, the driveshaft moves further away from the exhaust.
I gotcha. I kinda figured it would space itself out more with the suspension loaded. looks awesome! :nod:
