I'm gonna be working on the chassis and rear-end first, and then gonna go with some nice AFR's / TFS's and a ported 92 mm FAST Intake from Vengeance. (Prolly gonna send my Intake to him to be ported.) Or if I go with AFR's I'll just have Tony Mamo port them!
But the plans for winter are....
1) 8 or 10 point cage
2) Midwest Chassis 9 inch, tq. arm/ ds safety loop, driveshaft from PST, and etc...
3) some 15 x 4 and 15 x 10 weld wheels wrapped in some MT ET Streets and some front runners!
Then we'll worry about the rest of the car lol!

Thanks, I've got lots of time in it thats for sure. 
It needs a fresh paint job and some body work, but for what I'm using it for I'll just leave it alone.

The stripes I got from my GF on Valentines day. She bought them for me off of E-Bay and my buddy put them on for me with a LITTLE bit of my help haha.
On a side note: The car has really impressed me with what it has done NA. I'm anxious to see what a small shot and a 9 inch will net me...

And to be 100% honest with you, My next mod to the car is actually going to be painting that section Black. In fact, I already have the paint, sandpaper, masking tape, and it's on my list of things to do this week. LOL
Thats funny you mentioned that hahaha
*I have plans on repainting the whole car here soon as well but I want all the suspension and chassis and motor work done before I do the paint!
We'll see what happens though!
Thanks Again. And I'll be posting pics of how it turns out.

Wow 7.25 1/8 mile is damn good for what you have! I'm only running 7.0 1/8 mile.
And as for the PHB you just fabbed up, Thats pretty cool man. I have a really good buddy who knows a chassis builder and he had the guy make me a set of Dbl. Adj rod/rod Chromemoly LCA's and PHB for my ride. And my buddy painted them black with a blue pearl over the black. They looked sick when they were first done and clean haha!
Well keep it up, and You already know I will.
Thanks for looking at the thread. Like I've mentioned before, I love when people take the time to read or even look through it and admire the work and kinda see how much time I have in this thing!
It's been a long ride with this car, and it's going to be a lot longer of a ride too haha!
Can't wait til next season already!
I just picked up a set of weld 15 x 10's for the rear with (27 x 10.5 x 15") MT ET Streets
Going to grind the rear calipers this week sometime!
Should be a blast!
I'll add pics soon!
