The wheels arrived today.... some progress pics....

It has a 4" downpipe to the firewall.... still needs the 4" e-cutout welded on and the exhaust fabbed from there back..... I'm thinking instead of the dual 3" I planned with 2 mufflers.. I could just do a single 3" with 2 inline mufflers and exit in front of the passenger wheel well out the body. Would probably save 30lbs... be super quiet also.

Thoughts?

I ordered the Holley dash/display also for it. Opted not to do Speedhut gauges at this time.

The case needed to be modified for the WaveTrac of course! 3.25 gears installed..... it will do 60mph in 1st gear! Wonder how that gearing will work out in real world driving. Cortex Racing Watts link and torque arm! Thx Filip for the parts.
