Car is coming out great Kenny! I hear you about the cage, I am in the same boat. I never wanted more than an 8.50 cage in my "street car" but these damn cars are going so fast these days it was upgrade or slow down and you KNOW there is no way we are going to slow down.

Where I originally had the bar the hood latch hit it since I use the factory hood/arms/shocks. So I had to cut the damn thing out and move the bar in. So by the time I cut it and moved it in I fucked it all up. So I just used the mig and filled it in. I dont want to get rid of the wells and make something to hang the fenders.
When I finish the rest of the car Im pulling everything out. Sanding, filling all of the holes and painting the bay. So it wasnt on my list of priorities at the moment.

Only drove it 1,200 or so miles last year. I bought a new denali so it was nicer jumping in that to head to the store.
Street racing is completely dead in my area so that blows. Other than a few actual no prep street/airstrip races.
Its primarily track now.

I am still going to keep my factory dash and panels. I finally bought a dash cap for it when the guy was going to buy it @Ratical
I just have to weld some brackets on for the dash. Almost all of the factory tabs are broken off from coming down hard on wheelies.

4.50's if Im not a complete idiot.
4.4's if I get to a nice event and do work.
I have no doubts I can get it o run 159/160 in the 1/8th
I did 153mph before. There are guys going 4.5/4.6 with that power.
It just happened to be the first day I put the front shocks on. Last track day of the year. 55 degrees out. test and tune following jeeps and stuff.
Ill get it there this year. I have too much money into it to just play with it now.

This way I sold a bunch of old stuff and only had to throw 7-8k on top of what I made back on it.

Awesome! You've done a great job with the car and I'd love to see it in person. Hopefully you can show up and run a number plus meet a lot of good people.

going to mechanical fuel pump and the bigger turbo is going to be a start from scratch.
