Thanks guys!! It will be at the open house, but as much as I want it to be, it will not be finished. Waiting on our IC/Radiator combo from Griffin before we can build the cold side, and the custom driveshaft. There is also a bunch of little stuff too. Once all the mechanical work is done, the body needs to be touched up in a couple spots, buffed/polished, I will re-trim it (freshly reconditioned), and finally the interior will go in.

Yes, Jim built the entire system here, in house, it turned out great. This engine bay isnt as "roomy" as most people think. The X-frame is pretty narrow, and inner fender to inner fender isnt too wide either. Luckily, there was ample room to put the turbos high, and we had to route the down pipes between the frame and the motor, turning outward, under the frame, then finally back along the outside of the "X".

What size hoops you flossing on Two Ton's of Fun? Plan to push her to a 10.9 pass? I think the car could get a cover on Hot Rod Magazine.
