Me neither Jer....it's on the list of things to do. I have the new 6AL box that MSD just came out with. It's a plug in deal and comes with extra wiring for longer runs. Eventually I will install it inside the car.

I promise I'll get you guys some vids. Between work, family, and the car things have been real busy. I'll be picking the car up this Saturday. Hoping to get the dyno vid at that time. I'll ask Vince to vid the fire up session before loading it in the trailor. Hell, if he'll let me I'll spin some brodies in the parking lot before she loads. :unibrow:

The air box is carbon fiber and came with a lid. It's one of those deals you'd see on a K&N or ARCA series car. I've was using it with the lid but this time around we installed a 2" HVH carb spacer so the hood wouldn't close with the lid. A few modifications later we were able to still use the pan. Now we just need to find or get the box to hood sealer.

"I'll spin some brodies in the parking" YOU ARE OLD SCHOOL

I think brodies was used a couple of generations after me. I normally say donuts and would have used that term but I think the youngsters on this site would have thought I'd be headed to a Starbucks or a Pete's. :lol:

Thanks for the heads up on the seal Chris, I was on my iphone earlier and typing a reply is a pain when your hanging upside down under a dash. I appreciate it.

Actually Sieg I was joking....remember the saying. "Its like riding a bike"

I've been trying to get it mounted to his trans tunnel but the honeydo list is pretty long.

Managed to lose some weight and move a bunch near center.

Its coming along.

Understood it :thumbsup:

Just attempting to share perceptions with Gae that might help shave lap time. I'm looking forward to taking some laps as a co-pilot to see and feel the difference between 2 & 4 wheels at T-Hill.
