i have some pictures of the car now that it runs and drivs unfortunately my phone wont send videos so no videos to post yet. i did drive the car around the block and got on it pretty good. feels like the clutch is slipping, only running on about 7 lbs of boost. tried to do a launch test in the driveway and spun the whole length of the driveway, but it had ZERO wheel hop. Image
last thing to do t make it driveable was make the throttle cable bracket.

how it sits with the slicks on.

finally got the name for the car! i was inspired by a ford falcon gasser.

finally got a video of the car running! the video is of the second pass. the first pass it was running poorly and wasnt building boost quite right. then i found one of the spark plug wires was off the plug. on the second run i ran maybe a little more than 1/8th mile and ran roughly an 8.28. runnin only 7psi boost. and the speedo was only 1/4 inch from hitting the backside of the speedo needle stop at 0 mph so i was running about 100mph here is the link to the youtube video. enjoy! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fwAtN5mwQU4
