C5 with F1C

Just finishing up on my car and wanted to show off some pics of the project. A big shout out to Bob@EPP, Amber@SixSpeedsInc, TRT, firehawk123, and Thunder Racing for putting up with me. Build included a Iron 408, F1C, FMIC, AFR 225 72cc, EWP, Vic Jr, 90mm TB, and etc. No dyno numbers that are any good yet. Still working a belt slip issue and needs tires super bad. It is spinning like crazy on the dyno. So far we have only gone as far as 10 PSI on the dyno and it produced 728hp and 688tq but the pulley should be good for at least 14PSI if I can fix my little problems first. Here are a few pics of the car completed followed by a few build pics. Enjoy!

*engine shots coming soon*
