good luck with that. Charley's so hooked up that he doesn't tell time, time tells him.

so we got the car stripped down and we found a few issues to fix, one being a 12 " crack running down his firewall to trans tunnel along with the Fred Flintstone floor pan.
Yikes man, I can't believe the seat didn't drop out of this thing. . We should have the sub frame assembly dropped out an a few hours, and hope to have everything fixed and back in by tomorrow afternoon.

As long as it holds enough fuel to run for 25 minutes flat out that's all that matters.
This aint no pro touring parade car.

Accelerating is optional...........stopping is mandatory. Your car WILL stop one way or another.

got the shocks pulled out, sway bar positioning better. I'll work on the mount after I get The Black to the aligment shop this coming week.

The rest of the lower cage was tacked in and test fit. Very tight and right.

I think you'll be fine with 8 gals. I think you had a bit of fuel left over with the 5 gal fill.
