Got the car smoged this morning, then removed the air tubes again and reinstalled SLP lid and air tube block-off plates, and cleaned the MAFS.

Well drove it tonight. I would say yes, only because it seemed to be braking the tires loose a lot more. LOL. Sounds a little different now. I like it. Plus it just plain looks better.

I just got off the phone with Precision Industries(Vigilante). I ordered a custom 9.5" 2400 stall.
Plus:
ARP Flexplate to Crank Bolts
ARP TC to Flexplate
TCI Flexplate SFI 29.1 approved http://www.jegs.com/i/TCI/890/399173/10002/-1
B&M Pro Stick Shifter http://www.jegs.com/i/B%26amp%3BM/130/80701/10002/-1

Once everything gets here, I'm going to pull the motor/trans from the bottom and install all this stuff, plus heads and a new brass cam/oil drive gear.

Will do. They're used, but the chrome is flawless. They have 205/55 Michelin SXE's on them already. Although I might change it to a Rear-235/55 Front-215/35 eventually.

What a beauty! That's exactly the way mine looked but in '96 when I went to the dealership to pick her up
7.25 in the 8th is picking it up! Congrats! What was your MPH? Is this a N2O car?

FEDEX from Jegs just got here a bit ago...


SFI approved Heavy Duty Flexplate, ARP bolts for the Flex/TC/Flywheel, a Flexplate turning tool and the shifter to row the gears of the soon-to-be-here TH350 and Vigilante.
