sorry my computer crapped out while posting that yesterday, as for the car I am doing tubular upper and lower control arms Qa1 coil overs, Willwood discs up front with a Willwood master, the rear is going torque arm style and am thinking about going disc on the rear just haven't fully decided on that yet (probably will). for the interior I am putting in 05 Acura leather seats front and rear, custom door panels and 1 piece head liner. outside the car is going 2 tone orange on the bottom ( from the new challenger ) and mineral grey on top (from the c5 vette line up). Wheels and tires have yet to be determined. I know the rear will be a 295 wide but that's as far as I have determined for now.
Forgot to mention, I am leaving the 496 alone just painting it and resealing it and will be running a 4L80E behind it. not sure about gears yet as they need to be changed ,its running a 2:73 gear right now.

Spend a fair amount of time assessing the majority of you driving time and get that rear end ratio right! It's the difference between a constant annoyance and always enjoyable.
You should be able to find a ratio calculator for the 4L80E that will let you play with tire diameter, RPM, and rear end ratio.
so I have the casting burrs on the block all smoothed and the block is just about ready for prime then paint, I am using a limco single stage on the block can anyone recomend a good primer for painting an engine block?
also my compressor died last night so progress may be a little slower till I can replace it.
