thanks for the warm welcome everyone... im from the north bay, originally from the "city"... yea i ghost ride and swang!!!! LOL... but yea, dunno for sure why i got 420/319... the clutch and fly were brand new and havent been broken in yet... stock 10-bolt with 4.10s, stock tq... ill re-dyno it again when the i get the 12-bolt and tq...

dunno for sure, maybe NickN can chime in cuz he's the one that did the work on the car...after a a couple of months driving the hell out of it, it still runs like a champ!!!

just took it to the track last wed... street tires, full interior, stock shifter, and beat in the back:

12.762 @ 110.397 - 2.046 60' (tires @ 35 psi)
12.803 @ 116.508 - 2.253 60' (25 psi)
12.627 @ 119.331 - 2.163 60' (same)

yes i need to work on the traction issue... but my "check driver" light is still on.
