Thanks Tracy. I think I'm gonna run a single #8 feed and If I have problems I'll run another. I don't think I'll have any issues with it though. I managed to put alot of bars in the way under the car somehow. lol

Thanks Tracy
Alright guys I need a little help. Long story short my wheels never got finished. So I'm back to square one with the wheels. Seeing the car and what I'm looking for can you guys make some suggestions for me. I'm planning on sticking with the 18x12s for the rear and 17x8 for the front.
I did order a set of 15" drag wheels to get me rolling in the meen time.

Check out CCW classics. Great looking wheel IMO. Plus they aren't crazy expensive I think a set of custom offsets are about 2500 a set.

Nothing to report here. I haven't touched the car in 2 weeks. I'm working crazy hours right now so it will be another 2 weeks before I get back on it. But when I get back to it look out! I'm gonna have a month worth of feeling like I got nothing done hangin over my head.

I finally got back on the car! Whew did I have some pent up energy to get rid of this weekend! I didn't get to work on the car for over a month and a half due to my work schedule. Here's what I got done this weekend.
While I was at work the painters came over and got the wetsanding and buffing knocked out. Wow what a difference! Can't really tell in the pics but in person it looks super deep and flat!
Track wheels came in! So I got the tires mounted up and made a mock up rear so I could get a perfect measurement to narrow my rear.
Took 2 axles from an s-10 and put them in come chanel, then just clamp them down at the length you need.
Mounted and plumbed a proportioning valve for the power steering so I can fine tune the input for autocross/road course action.
Front end going back together.
Added a second Tial Q bov
Meth nozzles installed
Billet hood hinges mounted up.
And started working on the exhaust. Got the pass side tacked up, gonna try and get the drivers side done this week.
I also managed to get a ton of wiring done. Front lights, fan relays, engine harness, power cable to battery etc.
Couple more good weekends like this and this baby will be makin noise!
