Looks good Mike! Might have to stop by with a chair and sit and stare at that thing, I'll bring a drool pan 
Think I finally figured out why my Camaro won't run right up top, I'm maxing the injectors. Kinda cool actually, didn't think I would do that with an NA build, time for more fuel I guess. This sixxer went 14.1 chugging up top, man if I could just get it running right it's got very healthy 13's hiding in it N/A. Not bad for a DD six popper Camaro, lol.
Mustang is almost ready to have it's engine back too, single digits and wheel stands are around the corner.

Your car looks awesome, sweet stance and looks very clean. Like I have said before keep posting pictures of your progress. Hopefully as the weather keeps getting nice I will have a chance to meet some of you guys on here.
Thanks!

Got the 10-bolt all done today. Thank heavens it's plenty stout for the six banger, lol. That's my disk brake rear end with locker, 4.10 gears, cover, and 1 axle from what I bought from Cody. I splurged on new hardware and got some grade 8 bolts to hold the girdle cover down, painted it flat black too. Probably was a waste of $7, but at least it looks nice, lol. Now I regret not stripping the whole rear end down and painting it, ah well.

I got the FTRA in the ride and the SLP lid! That was kind of a PITA. Put new collecter gaskets in on both sides and a new header gasket in the driver side. It all took about 3 hours. Found out I had a header bolt missing! Nobody and I mean nobody had one one or a set for the car! So I call a performance shop and he said to use a grade 5 bolt and it should be good. So I went out and got one. Will this be ok to use for now on or should I plan on ordering some new ones?

Thanks guys. 
It was pretty rough getting the car back on the wheels with my back in agony but it was worth it lol...
Happy belated birthday Tyler.
Are you old enough to drink yet?
Yes, I really hope a wheelie is in the future lol... I have a mental image burned in my brain of the car carrying the front wheels through first gear.
As for the front end height in pics, I might need to add some weight in the engine compartment to get it come back down. Maybe I should put the engine back in it lol....

So I was wondering and thought I would get your guys thoughts on this.
So I have the FTRA set up. And it makes you block off the air path from the hood scoop to the intake. Now you can unblock it by removing this strip of gasket. So I was thinking if I use the FTRA and the hood scoop at the same time, would it be better, cause more air the better right.
