I need to sell off a bunch of extra parts, so I can get a TKO-600.
I also need a lighter spring for the wastegate to drop boost down to 9psi or so. Headgaskets don't like 15psi for very long. Stock block probably won't hold up much longer either. Want to dyno it with 15psi before I turn it down though.
Better block will have to wait til next year.

My overall goal with a pullied only cobra is mid 11's.
After I achieve that, I plan on adding a new clutch, followed by a KB or a Whipple. KB 2.8H or a Whipple 3.4 and run both at over 24 PSI.
After that, I hope to run low 10's and trap 135+. We'll see how that works out though.
First I need to get a brace on my IRS and get some cheap 10 inch wide wheels and some sticky tires.

I finnaly got my 42 pound injectors so I need to get a tune for my nitrous now...also try and sort out the overheating issue it developed at the end of the season
Maybe a supercharger as well....we'll see, I need to pick up a new car first, there are a few I have had my eyes on but I'm not sure which way I am going to go with it, I want a car that can be used all year around and that I can use in tsd rallies

My mods this spring:
1. BBK tuned shorty headers (mostly for sound)
2. Underdrive pullies
3. Slotted/Vented rotors
4. Hawk brake pads
5. SS brake lines
6. BMR LCA's
7. Possible DR's
Hopefully get her down into the 13.2-13.3 range without the tires.

Rediculously staunch emissions testing has hindered the H/C/I build I want. It would be more for the street than the strip and I am at a crossroads as far as what I can do and still be able to insure it. A mild passable H/C/I will be just as expensive as just slapping a Paxton on her which would pass with cats and probably make more power. I prefer natural aspiration so I'm undecided at the moment...

The first thing I'm gonna do is tires. I can't hook at all with the stock 235/55's. I'm trying to figure out where to get some 275's for my stock 17" tires at a good price. Next I'm gonna add some subframes and uca's. After a bunch of the small suspension upgrades and tires I'll be saving towards my sc.
