I should probably update this lol

We went a lil faster a few months ago

Bolt on pass

nitrous pass

Got new tires, doing some suspension work, and he went crazy with weight reduction. If I had to guess, he shaved about 300lbs off. He's building his rollbar for it soon.

Lexan windows all the way around, new hood, and a few other minor changes. I like it

Still bolt ons, weight reduction as mentioned above.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xltwr...RLocbg&index=4

on a 200shot (never tested it before going to the track)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_d2oA6ttiUk

Since that day, he decided on going with a 383 LS1, heads & cam, TH400 trans, and maybe losing some more weight in certain areas. Definitely will be spraying on top of that. He recently bought a new home, so progress wont be as fast as last time lol. However, we do have the trans, converter, motor is in the process of being built, and we have the heads/cam for it. We might ditch the stock dana 60 (if I remember correctly) and put a custom built 8.8 ford rear with a spool in it to save weight

if you're talking about that HVAC register in the front, it got blown off from a nitrous backfire lol. Aluminum intake for the win there
