Transmission tunnel modifications, the transmission is moved up to get driveline angles correct. The engine is as low as the headers would allow and needed to get the engine as level as possible.

New coils and adjustable shocks up front for more weight transfer.

1,000hp, not sure what route I'm taking to get that yet.

Upgraded drivetrain to handle the power.

And finish up some metal/bodywork

We'll see how far I get with that  

Plans or whats gonna really get done  . I-S fogger and progessor. Install the racepak dash and sensors I have. Rewire the entire car. Change dash to fiberglass oem style. Re-carpet interior. Mini tub to allow 12" double beadlocks and matching front runners. Shorten housing. Add provisions for adjustable upper/lower control arms. Relocate rear shocks and add adjustable mounts. Change gear. Tighten converter. Add chute. Strange calipers and rotors on all 4 corners. Replace cage with chromoly 25.5. WITH a budget! Wish me luck  

Need to get going on my wife's mustang. Floor, Quarter Panel, Pillar, small patches..
Still up in the air on drive train.

you just keep that up your way.lol

figure out a class to run in. biggest challenge I dont think you can put a big blower motor on a throttle stop. Looks like top sportsman is it. does anyone know the new NHRA top sportsman schedule?

poke all my internals into this.....



gotta finish that t400 inmthe floor, have 3 more glides to build not counting mine..... two of those are getting jw cases and bell also.

It's hard to hurt a JW's case.  Come to think of it, it's hard to lift one, too. 

I'm thinkin a vacuum system is next on the list. Got the engine stripped on the stand and it lookx like everything held up pretty good from last year. For a change.

Unlike a stranded trucker up North during a blizzard, I plan to contribute to my retirement somehow! Mentally or/and financially. Unlike the stranded trucker, money possibly will not be spent frivolously and the other ..... well I'm too old for that! Oh, what about the stranded trucker you ask!

A trucker was stranded in a truck stop up North during a blizzard. He walks to the fuel desk and ask,"what do you guys do here when the weather is like this?" The fuel desk attendant explains we hunt and f**k! The trucker asks." what do you hunt?' The fuel desk attendant says, "something to f**k! We f**k Wong. The trucker loudly explains, "I don't go for that shit!"

The trucker walks away from the fuel desk, then thinks I may be here for a while. He walks back to the fuel desk and ask the attendant, "what's it cost to f**k Wong? The fuel desk attendant says "ten dollars." The trucker surprised and confused says, "ten dollars to f**k Wong? The fuel desk attendant says yes, I get five and my buddy gets five. The trucker says,"what the hell you two get five for?" The fuel desk attendant explains, we got to run, catch and hold Wong because he don't go for that shit either!

I finally unloaded the car back in the shop today! It's nice to feel like working on it again. All I need is a new set of valve springs I hope....what's everybody else doing?

Well I sold my 01 stang chassis about 3weeks ago and bought it back the next week after i sold it so its in the shop just hung new struts and coilovers and running a new fuel system put my a1000 pump on last night and come to find out its toast got to get a new one now that's about it for me.

Other than the new baby forgot what it was like to be up all into the night and work all day

What's everybody else got going????
