I was there 2 weeks ago and they said the ocean was clearer than it had been in several months... no jelly fish, sea weed or anything... they called for bad weather all week but it never rained either

Now you just need to throw the rest of the short block and heads under the hood and you can call it "attempting to be a street car"......

By the way, how hard was it to install that other kit inside the intake like you did? I figured one fogger kit would be enough. Never seen anyone need 2 foggers on a street car

yeah same thing here. some guys in jasper are fairly responsible for my own personal build. no matter what they do I will always go bigger because I can. and they despise that attitude. **** em.



street car refers to ease of use on the street. the likelihood that you will drive it, and would prefer to drive it, and others would prefer to ride in it.


mine does not have a/c
but will have radio
another seat for passengers
is able to drive around without sounding like a carb'd uncapped motor
should be able to take it anywhere. on dates. groceries...to the store. emergency room runs. should be driven to the bank, the chik fil a, and to the track, from the track for some coffee and smokes before bed. thats a street car


not hauled in a trailer.......or driven 5 miles from the house on the highways. no stripped down versions....at least 2 seats.


thats my version of it anyways.
