Well they're telling me now the car should be back together within two weeks, so I'm stoked to get it back. Plans before the track opens again include:
1. Nitrous kit, probably run 175-200 shot
2. upper and lower control arms
3. Draglites and some real tires..
4. anything else I can afford...lol

Jake, the automatic would be so cool for racing, but HorsepowerbyHerman
had a turbo Cobra then sold the turbo and put on a new KB and said the
turbo just doesn't respond at lower rpm's like the blowers do. Mine kicks
in real good now with the 293/4# combo. :banana: :banana: :banana:

he like his power down low. everyone has their likes and dislikes. look at Turbo Cobra track times...those dont lie:banana:

Level 5 halfshafts (group purchase possible?) ported polished blower.

A shop in FL is doing them until the end of the month for 1370.00 shipped. D'Agostino Racing is the name of the place. I stumbled across them by accident and I can honestly say I was very pleased with the service.

edit - I missed the other response. D'oh!

if you buy the mac headers from lethal they're running a discount right now for the holiday's. with the discount applies it comes to like $420 shipped for the ceramic coated ones. pretty good deal, i'm thinking about picking up a set myself
