Maybe you should propose these videos to history channel to replace the lame version of Top Gear. All you have to do is throw some reference into the "shiners" and BAM, you've got the history part down.

Yes it is an auto. And Actually the cars power really isn't that impressive its just where the exhaust is so loud right now it sounds like that. With the auto swap the axle backs wont work and Josh @ LMR has to fab one up for me.

i thought huneycutt was y'all's tuner?
That's Jordan in there and Joe was guideing him along the way.

No one else built or installed anything on that car but LMR why would you say that?? No one is perfect its ok to realize you messed up and admit it when it happens. Not to mention this took MONTHS to figure out but none the less good job once again.

Actually another shop did start this build. Yes we did install the direct port and wired the nitrous system, and it works perfect. I am not sure who assembled the engine but they didnt weld the reluctor wheel together like we do on all of our built engines, and it cracked. The back firing problem was caused by the crank sensor loosing signal due to the cracked relutor wheel moving around or wobble wobbling. So conterary to your user name, you aren't calling me out

So in the video it says another shop did it now you did it>? Just a bit confused as I know a fair bit about the car and owner.

The cracked reluctor wheel was the problem and it was improperly done by the original installer, whats so hard to understand? So yes they were fixing someone elses problem.
