Took her to my old work and threw her on the lift. Swapped out the 28x12.5 slicks 26x10.5's, same slicks just smaller. Everything underneath was super clean and well built. Lots of stabilizers and professional mounts. The tranny was literally brand new Borg Warner. Bringing it out to the street drags tonight to dial it in a lil and see where we are at. Heres a few pics i snapped for a friend in cali so he could help us out a bit with it all.

Of course tonight is the only night Ive gone out and not seen a single carb car. It was all STi's, SRT4's, bikes, efi V8's, and there was a very clean b5 S4 with a big front mount and cutout bumper. But couldnt find an older muscle car to save my life. Oh well, maybe this weekend.

Oh I wasnt at a track lol. People all meet at a certain gas station by me and then go to a closed down perfectly straight and flat road to race. Its in the middle of nowhere. I was hoping to run this guy I know that has a camaro running similar times to what I expect the 5.0 to run, but he wasnt out. And the car is bogging pretty bad on wot. So I need to get the carb tweeked and the wideband, then we will be gettin her to the track on the bottle and I will post slips and vids.
