lol thanks guys! ya the wiring harness came from ron Fransis, and i have had to run EACH AND EVERY single wire for this car.... possibly the biggest pain in the A$$

also just talked to strange and said i have to order "custom disks from them"..... i feel like they just throw the word around so they can charge more on select parts

there is a video out there of a magazine or shop that put a stock 03 cobra motor in a fox, and ran low 11's on its first day out.

if kweb has a big enough stall to get him off the line hard, I bet it will run 10's at the current power level.

i would like 11's out of the box.... but who knows at this point. Want the car to eventually end up in the 9's
Just left my trans guy a message to try and figure out my stall size but i should have no problem leaving hard since there is a transbrake on the car

and by request here is the tool box! nothing special but def helps me out in the shop


and my pretty much finished cockpit for the airplane.... i mean race car


then a funny a$$ used bmw add i saw that i thought you would all appreciate

Wow, impressive! Obviously those Terminator engines were rated at 390/390 from the factory, but it's pretty obvious that they underrated them maybe for insurance? reasons... any idea what they actually put out in stock form? 420 at the flywheel maybe?

Somewhere in that range. I got a 2.76 pulley on it to to help out and the box does make a HUgE difference. And them the fridge.... Well I didn't want the stickers on the car and I had so many... So I had to put em on
