We need to take a ride over to BMR one day. You have all the connections! I'm seriously thinking about that K-Member and the A-Arms. Might also move the battery to the back soon. Get this thing ready for a trip to BMP one day.

Stock Height, headers are too low already! Get a price on upper and lowers. No point in keeping old looking stock stuff in there. I need everything in red.

Ight guys tell me if I'm far off. But I want to set a goal for myself on my firebird, I want 770 whp by 2012. I'm figuring 770 with a 30% drivetrain loss that's 1000 hp right? Am I close? I think I can do it with a new a set of diamond pistons on my eagle rods,stock crank and with my 317's,e85,tc78? My injectors are at 60% duty cycle now at 570ish. 20 whp doesn't seem too far for me.

I don't know I'm just sitting here pondering. But ill for sure need a e boost controller then
