Default It lives
I heard the car made its maiden voyage to the exhaust shop today.

We had issues with the McLeod twin hitting the clutch fork so the trans had to come out again. Got that squared away and he says it drives smooth.

Drag wheels are on the way as well with some fat Hoosier stiff walls.

Street tuning next week, and track the 7th pending no major issues.

Teaser video soon

The exhaust shop didn't start on it til this am so I'll have a video later hopefully.

We still have to pull the ******* JUNK LPP pass side header off and massage the body because its rubbing.

I don't know why people want an aftermarket LT1 block when they cant even make headers that fit, or a twin disk clutch, or an EWP, etc....

I also ordered one of Nitrous Outlets trick billet heated bottle brackets and a couple blow down tubes yesterday. I also talked with Dave a long time about tuning my setup and BSing about his car, etc.

Top notch service as always.

So you didn't build your car all by yourself?

Oh you!
