Yes mike, I'm thinking red with the polished intake tube will look sweet!
I actually give people like you allout06 more credit then me. At most times I'm doing 3-6 kits at once! I just got use to building them. For someone like you to tackle a twin kit is badass...props to the home builder!

Unfortunately, progress has pretty much came to a standstill due to the move I assume, hopefully they,ll get it on the dyno in the next couple of weeks.

no offense to anyone, assume Nothing!! pick up the phone and find out what's up with your investment. i know it's winter in the midwest and it just started, but i know you're anxious to get some results out of this bish, even if just on a dyno! calls are free, you wont be bugging anyone at straighline
on a side note, i'm picking up a 408 saturday and doing a set of twins on it (home built with a buddy of mine). It'll be a while to allocate the rest of the funds, but it's going into an 8.50cert '93 notch roller i just picked up and have gathered a few misc items here and there (th400, JW converter, huge a/a ic and a bit more), just needing a pcm, harness, fuel system and tuning and should be close to then. goal is 1100+rwhp and 3-400lbs lighter than the black car was (949rw & 3400 lbs). Hoping it's a lil quicker....

I hear ya. I call and stop by now and then, not as much as I should but I did talk to Nick today and after the holiday they're going to get on it. There's not much left to do, so hopefully it won't be long now. And anxious just barely describes it.
I was already extremely impressed with the Camaro, can't wait to see what you do with the Mustang. Will it still be a street car and do you think it will be going this summer?

I'm going with twin BW s366 btw. Should he good for 1200rw, built to last 100k miles and only $600-650 shipped each, depending on where you get them from. Got a buddy of mine building the same setup as it turns out, 408 with the same BW turbos in a fox body lol except his is a fairmon and he had burkhart chassis build his kit. Hope to hear what kind of power yours turns out Soon!!

Agreed about keeping on there case about it. Unless you haven't paid there is no reason for a customers car to be on hold especially as close as you say it is. Holidays excluded, but the longer it sets the more time for a "break in" to happen.
