I'm trying to imagine a 38 Lasalle leaving two long, black, smoldering patches of rubber behind it.

There is a pick I would likee to see.

Cool project!

The more the merrier. How about some of the total car outside of the shop so we can get a good look. What is your air intake plumbing? Custom made or did you buy it ready to go?
