    sweet build me like!! lol you are building one nice car here bud,wanted to ask,what motor plate did you go with?how much lower were you able to set the motor over where it sat with the previous 1 1/2 dropped mount setup? not sure if you were even trying to achieve setting the motor lower by going with the plate,but wanted to ask....aslo,what size rear wheels are you running? did not notice it in the thread,i like those tires,and i'm thinking the 325/50's m/t's that i have are going to be too short.

    thanks Ricky, the motorplate on blue car is 3/8" thick, it's a plate that we made out of sheet stock. We lowered the motor 1 1/2", we also used offset bushings to lower steering rack for oil pan clearance. The drag radials on car are 295/65/15 on 10" Alumastars, the ET STREET's are 30x12.5x15 on 12" Alumastars.

    thanks Bruce and Jake,

    Bruce, we decided to use a Stage 2 water injection kit with the geardriven blower when we planned out combo with The Supercharger Store. They have had great success with thier kit. It also free's up alot of extra space in the interior. I'll post some pics on the install soon.

    thanks Brent, We're excited about this build, I've had some good help planning out this combination. I think the reverse blower has a killer look, I was sold on it as soon as I saw Patrick Barnhill's Nova. He's made some really quick passes with his set-up (7.78 @ 178 ) and he's still tweaking his combo. I'm hoping to fire it up sometime in March, there's alot of little things that we still have to do to bring this whole thing together the way we want it to look when it's finished. There's some nice paint work and powder coating coming up after we complete all of the mock-up work. I'll keep you posted, thanks for the interest...John
