Rick, Just kind of wondering why you went with a 25.5. Does your track require it or do you just like the added security? Or do you plan on ripping into the 7's? Also how much weight did your 12 pt add?
Went SFI 25.5 since I was going NMRA Drag Radial racing and would have been knocking at that door...8.0's was the goalI honestly don't know what the cage actually weighs, the Pro-stock style backhalf I did is not required by the spec but after talking with some other chassis builders I felt it was needed to help make the car hook on the radial.
25.5 Full Bodied Car Stock or Modified/OEM Floorpan and Firewall with OEM Frame or Uni-Body Construction – 7.50 to 8.49 Seconds; 3,600 lbs. Maximum
Ive also looked at updating to The new SFI Spec 25.3 for Full Bodied Cars, 6.50 to 7.49 Seconds ET, 3,600 Lbs
Really at around a 3400lb race weight I just wanted to feel safe...
It's fast sitting on jack stands collecting dust....
just finished a 1000HP plus turbo street carLooks like a stock 93 Cobra from the outside
He who has collected the most dust wins !!!!

Thanks Guys, But PA is a bit far for me. Not just geting the car there but the constant travell back and forth, to follow up on progress of the car build. After all i am looking for the entire build to be done under one roof, Suspension, Engine Build, Tune, Drive line etc.
Anyone in that field feel free to introduce yourself as its all still up in the air with a certain builder im looking at in FL. He may be the way for me to go as the fact that hes in FL helps and most of what ive heard has been realy good things about his work and he has a suspension guy working with him as well.
Hes recomending a 427 SBF with the F1R Blower to get the RWHP goal. I think this is the way to go and just ditch the 302 SBF set up.
Guys Thanks for all the advice, well after allot of research, im looking Now at doing a N/A motor to put me into the 5.50's with all the suspension, fuel, transmission, lighten up the car, Stand alone system, pretty much building the car around 1400 HP ($30,000 Budget) so later on I will just go with a Blow through Carb with maybe F2 and alchol to avoid intercooler.
These guys at Mustang Specialties are realy nice to work with and they make alot of good sugestions. See instead of pumping so much cash into the engine with Blower, im going to build the car around 1400HP and then a N/A Motor that can do 5.5 all day then later when i get more cash and want to go faster i will be in a position to just upgrade engine and add Blower.
Does this make more sense than chasing the realy SBF and Blower set Up?
Thanks Matt
