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.

Love the radiator/oil cooler setup.

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.
