Where do I start. First Get the 4L60E rebuilt and its time to replace or rebuild the Yank converter. Going on its 7th year with no problems but is loose as hell. Nitrous is returning after several year absence. Adjustable upper control arms, MSD digital 6 and window switch to control the nitrous, skinnies for the front and redo the exhaust. I am sure more will come up. Want to put the boat deep in the 11's.

Pacesetter Longtubes
Summit Universal 3" X Pipe Kit
Taylor OTVC Wires
NGK Plugs
New O2s
Spohn LCA, Relocation Brackets, PHB, SFC, Crossmember Mounted Adj Torque Arm

Mines sitting in the garage with the battery tender on it. That and a 1/4lb. of rubber on and in the quarter panels from the last time it was out. (Great lakes dragway). I'm hoping to put a CPT trans in it this spring, as the stocker has told me it doesn't like me spraying when shifting from 2nd to 3rd. I stopped spraying through the shifts for the 11.08 in my sig, but I think it's to late. Besides, what fun is not spraying the whole run.

Im hoping to get my Afco shocks for the rear. From there, just taking time to work out all my bugs and see if I need a better fuel system; 14:1 at 6800 isnt good. Trying to get it all ready for the shootout
