Bought the car as a pullied/catback car. 24k miles. It didn't stay that way for long lol. First mod was the mgw shifter, followed shortly by a TVS, 3.0 upper and return fuel system built for e-85.

Last month was when the real fun started. Added 1 7/8" ARH headers, no cats, 2.6" upper and of course e-85! Car laid down 700 hp 660 tq. Currently still on the stock clutch (ticking time bomb I know!) so that may be hiding a few horses.

Currently sitting at 26,3xx miles.

Anyways....onto the pics!

Thanks! I've got a 26 spline input waiting to go in, just gotta pick up an RXT

Good choice, I just installed a 26 spline and an RXT clutch, way easier to mash the clutch in compared to the stocker.

I'm still breaking it in, it feels like the stock one, headed to the Dyno on the 11th.
