Just re-updated myself on your updates Louis, GEEZUS Dude! Im thinkin some night time nitrous hits will look freakin badass with flames shooting out them tailpipes! We will call him the "Green Dragon"....
I have 2000 street miles of mostly driving like a 16 year old with BB Dart. My rms arms and strut rods show no wear at all. They also save weight, the stock strut rods are heavy for their size.
Look at what goes into those drag pak engines. That MM/Ritter intake is $600+ and is pretty much the best thing out there. I'd call Mike at Muscle Motors and see what his recommendations are. Find a set of Eagle or Apache heads and go from there.
Honestly my speedometer hasn't worked the whole time I've had mine. All I know for sure is its ran 112 in 1/4. That's all gonna change though since I bought a t56 the other day.
I'm pretty sure Bobby Isaac set the closed course record at Talladega with tbars. 212mph average or somthing like that can't remember. But that was in 1969 so it doesn't count anymore I guess.
I was hoping for some open road and bangin all 4 but hey it would probably just end up in the ditch or on its lid with how fast that thing zings dayum!
