Yeah, I find it hard to beleive that I have a car like this for under $28k total...
For my own mental well being, I expect to break it every time I drive it, but its still soo ridiculously easy to make power with the LS engines, hope to be in the low 10's by the end of the year with the CS 8.8 and slicks and IF it comes to it that fast, a fully built bottom end, maybe a little bore and stroke, but with the daily abuse I give this thing I question If i'll need to rebuild the motor as long as tune is good and the methanol doesn't fail.

B,
You and gulfm3 ran the charge pipe the same way. below the subframe. would there be any way to run it above the subframe like the Hellion camaro SS kit?

Has nick put this thing on a normal dyno yet that wasn't being goofy? I understand numbers were all over the place at that dyno day... He said something about a stock coyote mustang putting down 480 shortly before this? Either way 63x uncorrected is pretty mean! Especially considering mine ran out of fuel at 540 on pump with basically identical fuel system mods lol Congrats and hope to see more vids of this car doing some highway pulls with other big power v8 cars! Nice kills on all those Hondas in the other vid btw lol

I like how Gulf routed the air intakes and was thinking that there must be some room for the charge pipe to go between the headers and the block then cut right before the abs.. im sure its alot of work but i think it would be worth it to add a skid plate and lower the car.

I was actually going to try to snake my charge pipe between the block and the DS motor mount now that I have the revshift mounts I've noticed there's more room in there. Might have to be the first to try it this weekend.
