Either way kick ass for finally taking these project cars(howitzer) out and hitting the strip! This is what will make me keep buying the mags!
I agree with the converter choice being to tight. Sucker needs a 3500+ converter in it. Keep up the good work. Love the look of the car!

It isn't right.. the trans had issues so that hurt the et and the mph.. It bogged bad off the line and the 2-3 shift was crud..
I ripped the trans out yesterday and took it to Hughes today to get fixed. Should have the car back together by Monday. Oh, I upped the converter to a 3200. I know I could have gone bigger but I don't want to kill the streetability.
Car weighs 3460 without the driver... Should be in the high 11s and trapping around 115mph.
I'll get there
