Default Crazy Project Car

This is my crazy project car that I am building. Its probally going to take me a year in a half to build but when its done its going to be sick. I was just wondering if anyone has any suggestions on any combos that they have heard worked well with others. Please, I would like to hear ALL SUGGESTIONS. Also, just for fun... what do you think the RWHP and 1/4 will be with this set up in a 88LX (dont forget to take weight into consideration...no a/c, p/s, no backseats, fuell cell, trunk mount kit for battery,etc, etc. etc.)

DSS Racing 331 Pro Bullet Level 20 CNC Shortblock

Moser 8.8' Rear
Full D&D Tubular Suspension (Strange 10 way adj. struts & shocks) (not sure on the suspension yet)
Strange Pro Street 4:10's
Flamming River Manual Rack & Pinion
Edelbrock Performer RPM Intake Manifold (upper & lower)

sounds good personaly i'd go with a TKO600 and keep the power steering ...but that's just me. what kind of CR are you going with ? what are you using for tuning ? what injectors, fuel pump, MAF ? with stock compression i'd expect between 420-450 rwhp (without n2o)

Sounds like a great project. If you put a couple hours into everyday you could probably get it done in 3-4 months, thats assuming your using a lift. Best of luck.
