yes, we started taking out all the weight and the gutting process. Its time consuming but easy. Nothing to it really, just money an time. Not looking for a world record but low 9's will be a breeze with this supra.

So what have you kept from the phamspeed kit? Also, how are you guys running the "up-pipe", x-over pipe, and down pipe? Looks good, and I do love the stood up rads, its how GM shoulda built these cars to begin with. Can we get some more pics with the flash next time don??? Keep it up.
