Hmmm...desicision time. Do I go through all the work now to put in a 10-point or go with a 6-point and rip everything out later? I'm thinking about putting the cage on hold until spring time to give me the rest of the winter to tear everything down and get seats and belts.

Thanks again for all the help guys!!!

eh, if you are going to be close to 10.0, might as well do it all right now so its finished. really your decision though with how much power you will have.

Thats what I keep thinking. Last time the car was on the track she was steady in the low 12.2's. But thats when she was a stricly street/daily driver. Now she's going to be a play toy. I just had the transmission rebuilt with a bigger stall and all the internal goodies. So I may even be able to squeek out a high 11 next track day. So the 10s are within striking distance. I agree that it would probably be a good idea to just go ahead with the 10-point now then fuss with it later.

Safety now...go fast later.
