    Thanks, it takes a lot of help to get this car where it is; Vaca Performance, my engine builder Chris Pack, Ricky Best at Vortech, Ryan Fabrication, Precision Turbo, Anderson Ford, Mike's Transmissions, Jack McInnis at Dart, Crower, Jesel, MSD..

    It's actually a magazine car, you can read all about the details of what we're trying to do with it in Fastest Street Car Magazine.

    Will somebody PLEASE bring me one of those hoods?!?! (I'll buy the gas) It looks great. Have any direct side profile pics with this hood? I love the look of it on the black car.
