Its not as bad as it looks. Everything sits higher 1/8" higher then the subframe. Im careful when I drive too.

Got my new radiator/oil cooler setup in finally. Hopefully will have it up and running soon. Wont have any real power numbers till I get my motor refreshed though, at least it will drive around again.

What shop do you work at in Houston? What did you end up doing about the axles? I remember you breaking them trying to launch it

I hope those axles hold up, I know the 4L80 will. Makes you wish it had a solid axle sometimes I am sure.

I'm also curious, do you own the shop? I'm in Houston as well and have been looking for a place to get some quality work done. Lmk!

Looks sweet! What radiator are you running? I've been toying with the idea of a top mount and new front end but have no idea what radiator would be big enough for a street car

The core on the radiator is 26.6x14.78x2.75 and the oil cooler core is 25.98x3.88x3.
Car will be on e98 so the radiator could shrink down a little bit.
