Fixed the pic.

I have a few engine swaps laying around, but I just dont feel like driving my car unless its up to par. I have the engine sitting on an engine stand, and tranny is actually laying in that room but i didnt take a pic of it. This engine is going to see over 400whp on pump, over 500whp on race. I am hitting 10's this season or die trying.

This engine is going to see over 400whp on pump, over 500whp on race. I am hitting 10's this season or die trying.
I wonder what it's gonna be like, lighting up the tires in 4th @ 100MPH?

I calculated the entire cost of my car. Right now I have under 15,000 including the car. It helps when you do all your own work, tuning and have wholesale accounts with various companies.

The building the car is in is actually my father's car museum. This bay was for his unrestored 1972 Detomaso Pantera. I will snap a few pics of the cars this afternoon. I will be working late into the night, trying to get all the suspension/brakes assembled so I can get the engine in by wednesday.
