What is the part # on that hood, and who do I order that thru..... that is an absolute must for next year.

I'm patiently waiting for ET to finish their intake that's like the one you had on your old motor, chances are one of those and a carb are gonna find their way into my engine bay for next year


Car looks awesome, and should certainly run even better.

All the parts are in his hand, it's just a matter of putting it together.There is alot of one off stuff and he has to do.A full dress on the front of the motor with the motor plate and dry sump pump,vaccum pump,alt,and we went to a disubitur setup with a belt drive that go's to the jessel drive.Cary knows we are racing very soon so im sure we will be out in a couple weeks to test.
