    Very impresive indeed :yup:

    I would like to see pictures of your chassis and rear suspension - also a photo of where and how you mounted your electric fuel pump - I'm at that point right now of deciding on the pump location for my Holley black

    Looks like a fun car. Id suggest putting the shock tower braces back on though. Heard alot of stories about the shock towers sagging in without them. May not be too important on a drag car though. But if you get the front wheels of the ground and come down hard you may wish you had more support for the shock towers if something bends inward.

    Yes, very nice car. Mine looks somewhat the same although running a 408 and powerglide with 4:56's, and mine only runs a second faster.......I am impressed.
    What type of hood are you running?
