Been Pretty busy the past couple weeks. 7 days a week and 14 hour days. Knocking out some of these customer cars. Finally bought my first new vehicle. Since the 17 has come out I knew I had to have one.
Anyone ever interested or wondering the 6.2 and 8 speed is absolutely amazing. I love every single inch of this truck. One of the best purchases Ive ever made. Lot of money lol but worth every dime.

I have been working on my 1998 Firebird. It was a roller when I got it. Using a LQ4 408 stroker with FTI TH400 and PTC converter. Moser narrowed 12 bolt, 35 spline axles and Ford 9" bearing ends. Got the 8.50 cert cm cage and my front chassis looks a lot like yours. How much trouble was the BMR torque arm to setup? It's been Mini tubbed and fits MT 325x15 ET Street Radials easily.
Love the quality of your work.
The Tq arm is simple. Nothing to worry.

3,004lbs with me at 226, cd player, power windows, ttops, both seats, factory dash and door panels is doing pretty good. With a big *** air to water intercooler, 5 gallon ice box, and 50lb turbo.
2018 should get interesting.

Friday the 25th Ill get the radials back on it and hit mid michigan for the first time this year. Im pretty excited to see the outcome on low boost first. Then Ill get it back to where it was hopefully. I have the suspension close to percentages of where it was last winter. So I hope it still works.
The car no longer hooks on the street with the new cam/compression/weight savings. It feels like its on 3-4 more psi. Its brutally fast for 14 psi!

Car kicked *** today. I made the fastest passes of the day by .3 and 9 mph and the car was on 15 psi. Dialed in the traction control That **** is sweet.
I entered in a 16 car shootout and got my *** handed to me first round by a small block fox on a big tire. Took me 3-4 passes but I redeemed myself and went the fastest pass in sight. 5 times in row as I bettered it! Successful day. A little rubber laid down helped me out since it was a no prep airport.
