Thanks for the laugh, I needed it. The wife had just read my last post, slapped me up side the head, and said, stop dreaming, you KNOW that ain't never happening in your lifetime. God I love that women.

 

Just wondering how the car was coming. Also wante to try to get in contact with you and see who made the headers or if you made them yourself. What type of times are you expecting for the car to run if you can get it down the track?

 

Dave the car looks great. Should be afun project when all is said and done. What are your goals for the car or any objectives you have set for the car.

I love the fact that it still has power steering, I can't tell but is it using the factory rack and pinion?

 

Wow! thats all I can say.

Looks great! Very nice job!

 

Thanks guys,

Lemons made the headers, call and talk to Dan. It's a factory rack with a Jones Racing pump. It should work well.

As far as performance goes, we all know power is only half the battle. I believe We have a good handle on the chassis so with the power I think it should run low 10's on the motor, maybe 10.20 or 10.10. If we could get some weight out of it it would goes 9's on motor without too much trouble but that would compramise the street theme. With the full 350 shot I'm guessing it should run somewhere in the low 9's.

 

Dave,
Sounds like it will be a fun ride . Do you still have the video of the dyno pull? Your link does not seem to be working for me.

Thanks,
Don

 

Try right click and save as, that should work.

 

thanks for the information on the headers.

 

Go Dave!

Now get that beast to the track and see what she'll do.

Best of luck.

Dave,

Any news on the buildup? We were looking for you at Maple Grove, thought you might be running in the True street class again. I hope everything is comming together for you.

Hey Don, THings are o.k. I started a new business and thats taking alot of time away from it. I'm working on wiring right now. The whole driveline is back in the car so that's a plus. I'm taking my time as most of this year is already shot. I might be able to make some shakedown passes before the year is out.

 

what kinda new buisness did you start?

It's a type of computer consulting company. It has since absorbed all of my time and most of my remaining money. In the mean time I am doing what work I can on the car.

 

DAMN!

(I think I've seen those headers somewhere before. )

 

Yeah, some cool dudes did the best coating job I've ever seen on them, maybe you know those guys
