yeah, manley also teamed up with CMS and a few other companies, so I think its kind of all from one place.

CT, yeah that is indeed your old nitrous bracket, filed, sanded and anodized. You need a window switch for the cobra? Im going to use an MSD instead of the dyno tune one.

Sweet dude! I love to see someone tearing into the heart of their beast.

How much are you into the shortblock now if you dont mind me asking.

No thanks, I have to use the n2mb n2o controller because it's the only one I know that will deactivate the nitrous when the clutch is pushed in, and it's needed since i wot shift.

Moonshine

CT, wot box or powershift?

jtb727

Counted up my receipts, and im at $4267 including my nitrous system, which still needs a few things, and I still need things like tb/plenum. torque converter, shift kit, trans pieces, injector adaptors, miscellaneous bolts(flex plate, torque converter nuts ) Hoping to be at about 7k with a tune.

CT, forgot you were all fancy now!
No worries

I have the n2mb wot box, hence the reason i'm going with their nitrous controller, 65 bucks hard to beat!

jtb, what kind of converter are you looking for? i believe the guy who bought my gt still has the trans/converter, it had a dd 3800 10" with billet cover

jtb727

Alan at DD, recommended a 10'' 3200 stall with billet cover. Thats what I was going to go with. How much does he want for it?

Moonshine

Wot box's make for a mean launch!

SHE'S ALIVE! and has a healthy heartbeat guys! Has a coolant leak from the new manifold, I have to track that down, but other than that, all seems well. Going to try to put a few miles on it today, to check out the built trans and converter from hughes performance, and to get a few miles on it overall. Shot my tuner an email about openings, if its an easy fix for the coolant leak, I may be in as soon as sat. the 13th, but waiting for reply. I'll get videos and pics up asap!

Final specs are:
fully forged motor W/ ARP throughout and Fel-Pro gaskets throughout as well. 11:1 compression.Freshened heads, light gasket matching. Manley Valve springs, CMS stage 2.5 NA cams, Mac long tube headers, BBK 78mm TB/plenum unit. MMR CAI. Hughes performance built trans and 3200 converter. Nitrous express plate kit. 3.73s.
