The seats are permanently mounted to the floor and cage.They are also moved back 6-8" from stock location. We are moving the wheel and peddle's back to fit.The car is lowered nicely too.The torque arm mount is 1/2 in the floor. DMC did an awesome job.The rear firewall is art work.

Matt- Totally forgot about yours

Nothing interesting done to it yet.But soon

They showed me the tires you want to run.They are huge!!!!!!

You must be getting excited to start wrenching on that. It looks real sick. Awesome fab work, I'm curious to see how a torque arm setup works on a car like this. So any hints on the motor?

I know you got a glide and a custom 9" in there, but what about the power? All I know is turbo in some way shape or form. I vote for big cubes and a single big turbo

Man whats it gonna be like to drive it. That things is gonna make 9's look slow LOL.
