Im hopefully going to upgrading the guts of the trans. Just need to find a kit. Im going to mount the M112 on the stock engine while I build the 4.2.

I wont be happy until its around 600. And I wont be done until I have the car set up for road racing, cause drag racing doesnt interest me.

Im going back to work tomorrow. The car will be lowered, have new mufflers/dumps, and hopefully have the rear Cobra brakes on in a month.

Sounds awesome, 600hp is more than Matt was pushing with a ported M112 though. For those numbers you should look into a whipple/kb or port I would think.

Well Ill see how 400+hp feels then Ill go from there. I have to see how busy work will be this winter before I can make any decisions final.

Opted for something bigger than the Explorer this time. 3,000 lbs of water and an 8' round transport bin didn't fit in the little Ex.

Matt, what do you use to hold up your valance at the corners of the bumper? Mine has decided that it doesn't want to stay in the right place since the last incident...

sorry body shop decided not to fix that part...

Last time I ripped my splitter off, I used DOW 795 along the whole thing to hold it on. Hasn't sagged off since then. I think there were pins that were in there when I first got the car... but it's been so long I can't remember.
