    Dgerfan55, just 3/3 drop and slapping that motor in it that posted, with some NOS, almost done with fuel cell fabrication and working on battery relocation too, but rear end spooled with 4.38 gears with a 94 toyota trans, 9 lb flywheel, act 6 puck clutch combo, then after all that time to work on some custom garaged made cal trac bars, have weld draglites in the garage as well just not put on yet, going to repaint again same color but this time with white pearl ghost flames.. should be nice

    nos, really.. wow
    I hope you got the bore and heavy pistons for that along with cam and lifters.
    Do your research and make sure that what you got inside will hold up to the abuse of nos.
