I leave the suspension work to the Chassis guys. I know how to make GM A bodys hook but I'm on a learing curve for Fox Bodys. I'm not use to cars that tear themselves apart so easy, lol

not sure what else but it only put down 363 i believe on the dyno then close to 600rwhp on a 150 shot.
it runs 6.80's at the local 1/8th track with a 1.5 60ft time

__________________________________________________ _____________________________

now my question is what do i need to beat him?
i am hoping to have my car around 2700lbs with me in the car. i want to beat him with a 302/306 combo. i just want to show him what a well thought out car can do. so tell me what combo you would put together. my car will be a carb application and im sure nitrous will be in the works. MY only concern is i want to be able to drive my car to the track and back.

thanks Jasper!!
Give me a realistic dollar amount you want to spend on the "Virtual" engine. I can tell you it it won't be real cheap but his car isn't that quick for 600rwhp. What kind of Block do you want to use, transmission, rear gear?
