Few updates...Bill finished everything I had him do including the parachute mount.


Once we got it back we got it all stripped down, sanded and paint the engine bay down to the tunnel.



Once painted, I got some of the bracket Bill made painted and started putting the front back together with the mock up block in. Also sent the front fender off to have it painted.



That's all now enjoy and I'll update more as we go.

So the exhaust is just dumped? Will that lift the car at all on a high boost pass? I know some people say a single exit out the bumper out the front fender/bumper will push the car over to one side down the track? Sorry if its a stupid question but I didnt really want a hole in my front bumper. I like your exhaust.

I don't really have answer for lifting the car honestly, I'm sure it will have some force but this isn't a crazy combo either like a 6bolt rhs twin 88's combo so who knows honestly. The other factor is I plan to drive it on the street so I wanted it to dump under the car. IIRC Carlyle up till last year had his dumping under the car but has now switch to it coming out the top of the fenders. When his dumped under the car he ran his 6's. I don't think I'll have a problem but who knows.

As far as the alternator it will either be lower passenger side where the a/c compressor normally was.

You dont worry about the chassis bending with the front support. new to that thing. how much do you actually need up front to be strong enough. looking to do some weight reducting.
