    What fuel did you use when you dynoed?

    Valve covers look nice.

    Alright guys!

    Added a second vent to my valvecover... Seemed to small to just run one!

    I have also fabbed up a catch tank so now my fuel issue is fixed...
    Walbro GST450 feeds the catch tank and the Magnafuel 625 sucks from it, seems to work fine!

    You raced the car? A big congrats to you. Don't get it dirty. That thing is one of the cleanest builds on here.

    Beautiful car and amazing build. I have seen companies that say they are experts not do any where close to being as nice as yours. I can only hope that in do time my build will be as nice as yours has turned out.:bow:

    The car went 7.0 - 100mph with useless 2.0 in .60ft and alot of spinning.
    The best run (the one in the movie) did not the timing work so got no timeslip but the car I ran against have run low 6.s before.

    Broke the rear end, finally the stock 28 spline axles went up in smokes..

    The caliper mount got cracked, damn c-clip axles. I will get some eliminators!

    Small movie just for fun, no traction at all.. Cold asphalt and 800hp :joyous:

    Those axles sure didn't like that kind of power.

    Really glad you got to drive it at least.

    Wow! Nice job on the axle. I vote to go with 9" ends and axles instead of the c clip eliminators.

    Hello and thanks everybody for the nice comments on the car..
    I'm doing the best I can with the car and trying to keep the car clean and fast :)

    I'm going with Moser 9" ends so I can use the stock brakes.
    The diff will be a Wavetrac 33-spline and Moser axles to go with it.
    I'm sticking with the 3.55 gears
