stock n/a rearend? All that power to a open diff? I'd say atleast get a LSD TII or GTU rearend and upgrade the brakes from the same models too. All that power and you expect brakes suited 130ish HP to stop you? Cool car but your gonna have some ---- coming out the hood right?

car is still being put together right now. He is going to run open dif to drive it for as long as he can. Is building a ford 9" as we speak. Also, the motor is being set up for a 200 shot... and later a big blower. Yes there will be an 8" Cowl on the hood to cover the air cleaner

That is a pretty ferocious ride, good work. Huge cowls are kinda gay but at least this car has a reason for it and can back it up.

Believe me, he didn't want to do a cowl. But it will look a lot better than a big air cleaner sticking out of the hood. As soon as we're done with the exhaust tonight, we will start getting it ready for paint.

----...don't stick a ------- solid axle in the back. Keep that ---- independent in the rear or do you just plan on going straight only.
