it's a very big build so there was quite a bit of expense. We'll post up results the second she's on the dyno.

amazing... so what is the plan for the old motor? I recall you attempting a sale to no avail? Another awesome florida build. Are you going to rewrap the car? If you have
vectors of the vehicle I could have a buddy shoot you some reworks if you're interested.

perhaps its time for a change both inside and out.

Can't even imagine how much money went into this car. Looks like it's coming along nicely though. Looking forward to updates!

it takes a good size budget to achieve what we're shooting for. It'll pay off in the end and as long as the owner is happy, we're happy.

Car is being re-wrapped in a couple months by a company we have been using for years.

We are hoping the strut bar can go back on. We are having custom plates made that will raise it up a little to clear everything.

The motor nor NA upgrades have sold. I am still concidering selling the stock motor but for a fair price.

The cams are Tomei's most agressive cams for the HR. We got the 4.2 crank from crower.

As far as the plenum goes, we will see what this one does when it's finished. The NA benifit wasn't there however keep in mind, it was designed specifically for this car (ie 4.2L FI). the NA version is still being worked on.
