Well, I haven't been updating the thread recently.... So I thought I'd at least add the latest and greatest news.

I broke the transmission again. I have a few pics of what broke, I'll post them later. Not to mention I kept it as a souvenior lol. Anyways. I have the trans. back already (Rebuilt again), so thats 1 less PITA I have to deal with this winter. Plus I have some plans for Winter and I'll try to keep the thread as current as possible.

WINTER PLANS are....

Midwest Chassis 9 Inch with 3.70 Gears and a Detroit Locker Diff. 35 Spline axles, Tq. Arm, DS Loop, (Back Braced) etc...

10 point ChromeMoly Cage

Ported FAST 92mm Intake

TSP 1 7/8" Long Tube Headers

Dual Walbro's 255 lph Fuel Pump setup

UMI Tubular Front Suspension Setup with QA1 Coilovers and 275 lb. Springs

Weight Reduction

Pro-Stars (15 x 4 and 15 x 10) Wrapped in 27 x 10.5 x 15 MT ET Streets on the rear and some street tires for the fronts.

AND A RETUNE....

Hoping my work will stay busy so I can have it out by MID summer.


LMAO... Yeah it's a BIG LIST huh! Well Expensive list anyways...
As for the cage, I was gonna try to have Bill Carter weld me up 1, But it seems like he has a waiting list as long as my mods list.

But if your wanting to learn how to do it, LMK. I'll lend a car for you to test on and I'll buy the material and lend a hand. 

Either way, I know a guy in Westfield (Friend of mine) Who recently opened a performance shop and he said he could put 1 in for me. And if I didn't have enough cash all at once, then we can do a 6 point and add onto it later until it's DONE!
He's a GREAT guy and definentaly knows his stuff!
If you want, lmk and I'll get you a number to his shop, and If you ever need anything, Give him a call. Or I can go up there with you sometime if you'd like to meet him.

And I'm not too worried about when the car gets done. As long as I have it on the road by next July or August sometime, I'll be happy. If not, Oh well!
With that said, I'll still be out cruising in something.
