Good looking car.
How do you like the face plating tranny and how does it drive on the street?

I love my liberty face plated t-56. I have no complaints on the street. To me a "hot rod" is suppose to be harder to drive than a caddy. On the strip it is butter!

Very nice looking
Are those bars legal for 9 sec? I thought you needed a 10 pt system

I think my 8 point is good to 9.5 but not sure. Steel Concepts did the chromoly cage and he's going to make a 10 then 12 point when neccessary.

The big weight reductions were; HVAC delete, tire and wheels, mad man manual rack, front bumper bracket delete, front sway bar delete, springs and shocks, K-Member, ABS, cruise control, Jazz seats, rear seat delete...those are the main ones I can recall.
I want to keep it looking stockish so all I've got left is: sound deadening, airbags, crossbars, entire wire harness replaced with a standalone FAST system, rear bumper bracket, manual brakes, Strange drag brakes, wiper motor...and so on. My goal is under 3100 lbs (no driver).

i believe that rollbar isn't legal for that time. 13.9 or slower is a rollbar no less than 5pt. A cage is necessary when running under a 10.99 or 135mph. So maybe your track tech was is alot nicer than what im usually dealing with!!
However, i dont want to take away from this thread. Your car is just unbelieveably amazing. Engine looks flawless and interior is clean. Weight is retarded as well!!
Job well done!!!
