I've been through these forums many a time already, just never had anything to say.

Thanks for the compliments guys - car hasn't been to the track yet, nor the dyno.

Not much to the mod list: 3:55 gears, BBK equal length shorties, 3" straight pipe to flowmasters dumped at the axle. 03 cobra interior (everything except for the dash), 96-98 rear cobra, *96-98 tail lights

The motor will be coming out very soon, as in this weekend if the weather holds. I'm going to go through it, and make sure everything is still in good working order and replace whatever needs it. Also hoping to at the LEAST, if budget permits, to get my hands on an aftermarket cam, not sure on which one though since im not sure if I'm going to keep the gt-40s for long, also hope to at least port my intake. And while that's happening, I'm going to have the car painted metallic pepper gray with metallic black stripes ("Eleanor" colors) in the same style that they are now and add on the abc exclusive side pipe side skirts (which i ordered today).

*my car came with the 94-95 tail lights but the 96-98 harnesses, and since i couldn't find anyone to trade me or sell me the harnesses for my car, I made a deal with someone and have these tail lights for the time being.
 
man you sure do got a big bluff then. by the way the stance was on that ride is, i thought you had around a 10 second street rod.

car looks great man i think it will look even better when you get the side pipes and the new paint job done

Haha, yeah, I get that a lot. A lot of people are intimidated by the 4" cowl hood and prostars. I've had a few camaros, turbo'd imports, t/a's all pull up next to me, scope the car and just drive off with out so much as a rev, it's pretty funny to see it happen.

I would like to go to the track before I change anything, just so i know where I started and where I'm ending. I'm hoping for a decent time, the only reference that would have me hoping for a good time would be a race I had in "Mexico" against a 96 gt with a procharger. Two from a dead stop and two from a 15mph roll, I took all four runs by about 1 - 1 1/2 cars length.
