66ac cobra did you make that cage for it? what does it have suspension wise? did you do the tubs on it?
with the rear tubs would a back seat fit or would you just have to get a delete panel?

was the person who welded up that cage drunk?

checkout the bar that should be parallel to the front of the top of the windsheild, and where it is welded to the bent tube running down the frame [Eek!]

When I get the rear chopped, I'm putting 15x10 drag lites with 295/50 BFG cheapo radials and burning them every chance I get! [burnout]

Then I'm putting on 325/50 drag radials and going to run at the track with the stock engine to get a baseline, even down to the paper air filter! [burnout]

14's here I come!

Maybe 13's if i get that chassis dialed in!

i didnt do that, they were powder coated red when i recieved them, it was a surprise to me too

would not be hard to repaint them, i just dont care

alan, as light as this car is, if u cant crack 13's with a stock motor you suck

but i would hope for much life out of the t5 in there, put the tko in there and break it in with this maonster stock motor [Roll Eyes]

And my car and JohnB's car...

real little slut that coupe! Be nice to see it hauling ass down the track. [patriot]

Eric does great work......I will put in the TKO, get the rear chopped and built, and go down the track with the 28x10.5 slicks I got from Team Solo until the motor pops!

Maybe 12's with no acessories or belt, no air filter, 20 degrees of base timing and race gas!!!!!

If the motor pops, can someone tow me home [worship]

and a STOCK pos motor that runs kinda funny [Big Grin]

put the F1R on the stock motor and do a run with it and see if you need another engine [burnout]
