Yes you are, you even doubting the 10 bolt you built for a second there lol, and sure, although it'll be a while before I go back

With a built drivetrain/slicks and a launch off the limiter this car has several more tenths left in it. That's real strong for a cam only car with our DA here. Making me wish I went with an MS3

Thanks Bob! 4.11s or 4.30s, depends if I spray or not, and that depends if I get a cheap car to DD, since this is my DD.

DA was 1250 I believe, now is where stuff is getting expensive, not sure where to go, QA1s/more suspension...or get a used 90/90 fast, or just finally save it all up for that 9".

I'll be back in town with the car probably mid-late May. Deff looking forward to being back. I miss cruising around, and I'm throwing a 3600 stall in while I'm on R&R, so I'm anxious to see what that will do on the track.

Not sure how much money I'll have aside to blow off on the car when all is said and done, but I'm still trying to figure out a great head and cam combination that isn't just good for max effort down the strip, but also good for power down low for DD and possible road coarse use in the future. I was sorta eyeing the Torquer V3, but still don't really know.

That, and since this is still my daily, and I have never touched a motor before, I don't think I'd be able to finish such work on a weekend and be able to get to work the next day, so it will prob be a long time before the motor gets touched.

Gotta say though, your car is pretty badass right now

I've never owned/raced a 6 speed but I'm pretty confident to say most would suggest A. 9 inch B. Driveshaft C. Torque arm D. Slicks. I realize that's a ton of money, however, it's what is need to beat the **** out of your car and not tow it home or still be able to get to work Monday. We've got some smart 6 speed guys locally that can help you put together a good parts list. If you need someone to help you setup gears in a 9 inch let me know....nearly free of charge of course, I've been known to charge a beer fee

Last time me and Josh R ran I think the DA was around 1800. It was later in the season though....

I would get a rear first thats what will make the biggest improvement imo, also my ms4 car pulls a ton better with the tsp duals over the ory setup i had, fast setup with a chris 1313 will help as well, i run a ms4 in mine, once i can get back to working on the car im trying for 10s with a 150 shot, your car pulls great though, very very strong, cant wait to see more vids

Interesting, i've been wanting to avoid re-doing exhaust, but I know I'm somewhat choking the cam with my intake and exhaust setup. What bullets do you run and got a video for sound? Good luck hitting 10s!

Those were 26" tires, I run 27" talls on the street, all seasons ftw.
