so when college is over you gonna mod it some more or whats the plans?
weel, my dream/goal is the following...

ford strokers 331 with a B&G turbo kit on it or a Vortech or Kenne Bell, havnt made up my mind haha
TKO600
build up the rear, and throw in a panhard bar/torque arm setup
5 lug swap
saleen bodykit, wing and a heat extractor hood from cervinis...

I have some plans that will prolly take a while, but being a cop will pay decently, I just hope I dont have wine tastes on a beer budget..


the original 302 will get cleaned up, rebuilt and bagged up and stored until I find something to do with it/put it in...

I'm kind of surprised you beat him. The supercharged models are underrated at 205hp, they typically lay down around 215+rwhp, very similar to what your car probably puts down and he weights less.

The new TC models are also underrated and are almost a heads up race with a 3v.
