Haha, the only limitation he gave me was 1000HP or more. He said when we get up there we'd better go with Strange axles and a 40+ spline. Right now the QP axles and 35 spline spool will handle what I got for it. ;)
 
Well I got out there today to move the car around to get the rear away from the un-insulated garage door so I can get the spring relocate done. Here's how it sits as of right now.

So as you can see I have a bit of work ahead of me.

Relocate box is in!

Hard to notice, but if you look, on the drivers side, the spring is on the outside of the frame, if you look on the passenger side, with the new box in, the spring will now be in line with the frame.

Here's another shot of the box installed after notching the sub-frame.

Last pic for referance on where the spring currently sits, and it will sit where the frame rail is due to the relocate box we installed on the other side.
