awesome car man! like i plan on either finding a decent shape quasar blue roller, or cut my current med. patriot red, and get the whole car painted that color. the motor build looks pretty similar to what i had plannd, a little less aggressive ... but along those lines :] hoping for a good 10 second pass on a decent shot, and low 11's or better on motor.

my old setup went 10.40 on a 150 shot at 3550 lbs raceweight.... pretty much on a complete streetcar with zero front suspension upgrades.... So with this setup i wanted to skip nines on the bottle and run high 8's with the tune set on "kill"... then i'll detune it and run 9.0's consistently and have the motor and car together for a few seasons.... enjoy it without it breaking.....

Then I know I can always jet up if the "reason" presents itself

Boy isn't that the truth any more! I spent over $2k on an ignition I had to take back off so I could put a stock opti back in!

Good luck on getting there! I can't wait. I hope to be making my push to the Nines in two weeks
