Very nice car and a great looking setup. Awesome power and torque numbers too. That thing has to be a handful on the street

Looks good, i would highly recommend putting some sort of upper radiator cover on.The car will run much cooler/take longer to get hot.

Well when you dont hook up and you burnout everywhere the 10bolt holds up just fine. Its when you stick it hard is when you have problems. Im going for broke with my stock 10bolt.

Nice build, Homemade=get paid.
