Default I must share this with you...

As many of you know, my forged internals project is now done and I have some fuel issues to work out before I dyno. Here's a few pics of the finished "exterior" project...

I haven't "tapped" the power yet because of a fuel pressure regulator issue I have to work out first.

The tires are BF Goodrich g force KDW.

I know, that's why I am going to try and get a sponsorship through BF Goodrich. I'll be like, "Hey I already wear your tires, just want freebies in the future",lol.

That looks HOT! So much for they "sleeper" look you had going lol Cant wait to hear some of your new stories when you get everything together. We have the same wheel/tire set up and I can tell you now, you'll love the KDW II's.

Love the scenery in the background as well, makes me want to move out to new mexico.

it looks beautyful but I have a question:
Why put all this money into upgrading this car if you're not allowed to run it a track due to lack of roll cage and such needed for a convertible with that much power?
