Looks even better in person Don! Thanks again for the coils. I'm sure the new parts I picked up from you will make for a fun project.

See you in the spring for a new tune.

Looks great Don! I see the pics were taken on the dyno..... how did the 1/4 times come in? I'm guessing in the 9's.

What did you say you're doing for a hood?

It was on the dyno for break in. Made a few pulls and didn't like the power curve.It was going to peak at 8k rpm which was to high for me.So,new Cam coming which should bring the peak way down.Should idle nice on a 110LSA and installed at 106LSA
