Default Am I gonna regret building the 92 coupe??

Well, "Project 1992 Coupe" is underway. I just got a UPR chrome moly tubular k-member with coil over kit and tubular a-arms, BBK long tube headers, Moser forged, induction hardened axles, Moser rear end girdle, 8 qt deep sump oil pan, Strange adj. front struts, tubular non-adj upper/lower CA's, UPR 4 bolt C/C plates and will soon have Pro Stars bigs/littles.

I already have installed Strange adj. rear shocks, full length sub-frame connectors and MSD 6AL box. The specs on the car are as follows...347 stroker, forged Eagle I-beam rods, forged Scat crank, forged Keith Black pistons (11.0:1 compression), Trick Flow Track heat o-ringed heads, Trick Flow Track heat intake, 75mm TB, 76mm MAF, 30# injectors, 3.73's, Centerforce clutch, TR3550 tranny with scattershield.

Do ya think this car will be competition for the Bucket. I fear it's gonna spank the Bucket's A$$ at the track. The Bucket is my first love and it will crush me if it's MUCH faster...lol

I bought a twin turbo kit a month ago or so. After researching everything I would have to do to be safe with high compression, I sold it. If I go with FI, it will be a bottle baby.

Have u ordered the pistons?

If not then i think the LX should see FI besides n2o. If you got the funds, supercharger then a turbo after. LOL she should see some wicked power along with nitrous and a sick Head/cam setup.

The motor is done. I won't be changing anything for internals. It's together and running beautifully.
