yeah I saw on your build thread you were pulling the motor. I knew you wouldn't be happy with the 396. It sounds mean but lacks some serious balls!!

Got her in the booth yesterday and got rid of the white stripes on the nose. Also a pic of the rear setup

Well just as soon as shes on the road, Its back i the shop to tear it down! WE are making some huge changes up front. We will now be running a Jake's Rod Shop C6 subframe with his DOM control arms, splined sway bar, and his customs Try-y headers. Also changing brake setup to C6 355mm 6 pistons, and changing the wheels to some 18" Forgeline WC3R with BFG rubber. If you want to play with the big dogs you got to spend the dough!!

I'm really loving the 2nd gen's these days, especially that orange, just makes it look so damn aggressive and in your face... sick car!!
It may be just me, but in all those pics you just posted it looks like it's constantly tilted to the passenger side...??

Chris, how come you did't paint the hood, deck lid, and rear spoiler when you were painting the header panel to get rid of the white stripes? Just a personal thought....but I think it would have looked more consistant and 'finished'...and you already had the paint in the gun........

I'll eventually paint the carbon pieces! We did the nose cone blend in about 2 hours in between getting the car running. Didn't have time to do everything else. This winter the whole car is getting painted , that is if it stays around that long
