Car was dynoed by Speed Inc. and put down 518rwhp at 7000rpm. The car has 1 timed shake down N/A run where it ran 10.601 @ 126.8 with a 1.45 60ft but the car was beginning to get hot from a fan issue that was resolved and an oil leakage issue that has been resolved. This run was also without a tach. I would venture to guess this car should go 10.4’s easy on motor, hopefully quicker. The engine was built to handle a 400 shot of spray. I believe on a 300 shot she will probably see high 8’s as that is what she was designed to do but hope to see that on a 250 shot here in the spring. I believe that if an exhaust setup was installed, that you could drive her on the road. This engine has not seen n2o yet, but it’s coming soon
Here are a bunch of pics and a few vids. Some of the vids are from when we had our track timing system stolen (crazy, I know) so I don’t know the times from the.

Thanks guys for the responses, just became a little more fun
I'm thinking about selling it next year b/c that i'm thinking about buying a house and this would be a nice help towards a down payment. I've molded this car the way i've always wanted a car, want to do a few more small things and make an 8 second pass and then i'd let her go. I'd even not spray her if a potential new owner really wanted it.
About the 25.5, yea it definitely wasn't cheap, but what's nice is that I still retained the stock floor which made it much more difficult (I was there helping where I could with the cage builder). We made the cage all symmetric and pleasing to the eye as well
