"Modern" pro street as a classification seems to just be a cleaner, more livable version of what pro street started as. Pro street started as street legal, drivable drag cars, that ran FAST and had a high build quality. The style caught on and tons of cars were cranked out that looked and sounded mean, but ran 15 second quarters, if they didn't blow up. I'm sure there will be "modern" pro street cars that aren't functional, as we're now seeing pro touring style cars that are show only. I hope with the advances in technology and the amazing increase in potential performance available to consumers and builders now, that modern pro-street is defined by cars that run 10's or quicker, look good and are comfortable and reliable. Pro touring should be classic cars that outperform modern sports cars in every way. Unfortunately, there are so many hacks with poor taste and poor judgment that ruin people's perceptions of customization. It's a crying shame when brilliant, credible builders and enthusiasts are over shadowed by goons who degrade a genre, which is what pro street has to recover from and what I pray pro touring doesn't go through.

modern or old school pro-street always has to have fat rear meats and way to much horsepower. Gas mileage should be the last thing on the list. Just my .02

Update. Glass front end, radiator and intercooler all mounted. Engine going to dyno in Feb. We made some changes there. Were hanging the dual master pedal assembly with balance bar (adjustable from dash) and putting the floor/tunnel in. The custom 28 gallon stainless gas tank is done and installed. Has a triple trap door internal sump, Magnafuel EFI pump and #12 out/#10 return. The radiator is a 34" wide core dual pass, with a pair of 2 speed 17" derale fans. Water pump is mounted on the radiator tank. Both tank pics are with the car on a lift.
