Awesome project but (and don't take this the wrong way) it would be finished now if you didn't have so many other projects! How do I know this? I suffer from the same problem haha

neonsnoozer believe me i know how much it sucks. anyways like i said before its a patience thing it doesnt cost me a dime to sit there until i get out of financial hell!!!!

shelby its an ax15 tranny. and i do have 2of them to go through before i have to find an upgrade. not sure how much power ill make with the boost limitation of 14psi because of the webers, but when i take the hood off it will be different which is what i set out to do.

I wanna see youtube videos of it when you get it broke in. I wanna see underhood shots, hear it idle and see it go down the road and/or track. I want dyno numbers, too. I await anxiously.
