Default 383 is finally done :-)

Turned the key on Tues night. Running great! I need to schedule a dyno tune. Base tune fired right up; thanks to Jacob Clem. Thanks to Fraser at AES, Andy at FLT and Emblem Pro's. Waiting on Midwest Chassis for my fabbed 9". I have to install a racetronox pump and line lock; will do that once I get the fabbed 9". Thanks to my bro-n-law James for answering all my questions. Feels awesome to finally drive this damn car
Vid needs to be opened with realplayer.

Default MWC 9" now installed

Finally got it a week ago Monday; took me a bit to install it because I had to drop the tank and install a Racetronix pump and wire harness, new braided brake lines and line lock. It was a bitch to install myself but the results look good. I just have to bleed the brake system tonight and then break in the 9". Hope to meet up with some of you Chicago boys soon at a gathering...

Have 600 miles on the rear; dyno tune by Mike @ Straightline in 2 weeks; almost hammer time!

Hoping for at least 420 at the wheels...

Congrats on the new build and rear end. You may want to upgrade to a thicker sway bar to go along with that new rear end/ suspension parts.
