Sounds like a plan. I have no idea how long my car will take. Shouldn't be too bad since I am doing some of the big stuff before I send it off.

Yeah... I can't wait to get her out that way. My SRA conversion is taking longer than expected because the damn welder took a crap on us last week. Yes we are doing teh SRA conversion in the garage... LOL

Stenod is picking the car up in early December I believe... I just gotta get this thing moving. And get it out to Stenod before my house sells otherwise it is going to be a pain to ship it out!
Damn this makes me feel better , I only refi`d my house to pay for my racecar your selling yours to pay for a racecarj/k. That goat should be a bad ride , definately deep into the 8s once its dialed in, good luck.

Yes Gator... you can have a ride when its all done.

I am going to try and keep it above/around 8.5s although the setup should be good for 7s when its all done. I really don't want anything more than a 10pt in the car so I can still street drive it.

The 42R's are good for 6's in a lighter car, they really are overkill to the max for a car like that. If you wanted to keep it slower than 8.50's you should have run a pair of 4088R's to give you a nicer powerband and better streetability.

The thing is the car will most likely get certified to go into the 7s and I couldn't pass up the deal on the turbos. I am actually still considering having the car built now for 7s. Who knows...
