Pretty much as beefed up as mine is now.

For the amount of cash I got in my rear I should have gone 9inch right from the begining...

Made 690/686 today at the show. I'm happy. Won a trophy for highest power of the day. Wish I could have hit 700 though.

I throw out: "Hey Silencio chief!"

It pisses her off, but the talking goes away.

It had few mods nothing major. He had just put his stock wheels on to try get a tenth or 2 at the track. Was on way there. He's had bad luck with cars the last year. His 5.0 broke trans. Then popped motor. Had it built and then traded for the viper. Then this happened. He has only had the viper about 3 month's.
