Thanks! Not yet, I dropped off the car at Guldstrand Motorsports in Burbank this morning. Waiting to get the trans,headers, upper control arms, and wilwoods in and sorted out. Then its off to my electronics/audio shop for the dash, gauges, battery relocation, a simple stereo.

I'm going to be using either the Covan's Thunder Road unit in black. 5" Speedo and Tach.


Or I'll use Anvil's dash, but paint it black. Maybe they have a blemished one I can get. I don't want too much carbon.

Anvil:


I'm undecided on gauges so far. I like the Carbon Autometer series, but feel that carbon fiber should be used for functional purposes, not show purposes. I'm on the fence about the whole thing. Black dash is a must though. I eventually plan on using every carbon fiber body panel Anvil makes in addition to fiberglass front fenders for weight savings. Too much carbon on a muscle car can be a bad thing I think.

I will be using a special sequential shift light system in the dash as well that'll be pretty cool and quite functional at track days. I find myself bouncing off the rev limiter at times.
