FI guys- Plans for the winter?
Just wondering what everyone's up to.
I am doing the following-
-T-56 rebuild (having no 5th or 6th in your daily driver is no fun)
-Strange 12 bolt w/3.42's
-RAM clutch, adjustable master
-Harlan 2 step (lets get them going <img src="images/icons/grin.gif" border="0"> )
- Boost regulation, stage 2 re-calibration, new tuning, more fuel.
-Roll cage, DS loop, 5 points, etc.
-ET Drags
- Weight reduction
I want 10's on the stock motor in race trim. low 11's in street trim. And, god willing, this car WILL remain my daily driver and only car, even throughout the New England winter.

Man! Let me gt past Christmas shopping first! <img src="images/icons/shocked.gif" border="0">
I would like to try getting a beefed-up tranny and a 12-bolt rear.
If I can do that, once I recuperate, it's heads/cam/intake time.
How much is fantasy and how much is real is yet to be seen.
Oh... and I have a Black 1998 with 75,000 miles on it... I need a paint job! <img src="images/icons/frown.gif" border="0">

1. Get the rest of the Incon kit (I hope)
2. Install new FLP 4l60e
3. Install PA k-member and a-arm same time as turbo kit
4. Install hal shocks all the way around.
5. Hopefully get LS1 edit and install 36 lb injectors or bigger. May have to wait on this one.
6. Install wideband system with data logging of rpm vs afr vs boost (or some other measurement). May have to wait on this one.
