Welcome to Stangnet.
How about I move your thread over to the fox general talk subforum. You'll get lots of replies there
Thanks for the info thats exactly what i was after. Ill do chassis this winter and ill be ready to bkow another 3k by summer lolIf you are committed long term, and have goals of running down into the 10's...

Dialed in with weigh reduction you've got a consistent/reliable mid/high 12 second car.
But the foundation is there for low 10's.
Add power later, and, if committed to 4.56's, you are going to be getting up there in rpm, and, rpm costs $$$.
If this is a whim...
tq box reinforcing, axles, welded tubes, spool, driveshaft loop, Jegs control arms, Lakewood shocks and a 175 n2o kit, sell the 4.56's and get 4.10's...
When the track it just right and everything aligns, this will run down into the mid 11's, but, you'll be at the limit of everything, and, some nights you'll run low 12's and be pedaling it out to 330'. It'll not be the most consistent setup, but it'll be reliable (assuming n2o tune is spot on)
Figure out if you like the sport, and go from there.
Let us know when you're ready to spend the next $3k.
Thanks for advice and info. Im going shopping !Yup, quicker than a 10.0. Then you can get an 8 point certified for as quick as 8.5 sec. Plus a competition lic required. After that you get into what is called the 'funny car" cage, 25.2 cert gets you to 7.5 sec. and so on. Any speed 150 mph or over calls for a parachute. Don't have to use it, but it needs to be on the car.

What do you figure is my best bet for axles and carrier? Looling on summit website and there s a lot of options for 31 spline carriers ranging from 250$ to 800bucks and on.If you are committed long term, and have goals of running down into the 10's...

Well my goal is mid 10s and i plan on driving it on street maybe a handful of times per summer. Not that important that its street legal more of a strip car. Fuel injected now but was going to change to carb in future along with nos. Basically looking for a nasty little quarter mile stang that'll lift the front wheels for the first 60'.I think you have to detail exactly what you are going to do with the car.
Full time drag race car?
Driving it on the street?
Quarter mile goals?
Is it fuel injected right now?
Real world budget you are willing to spend on the car down the road?
$3000 is a lot to spend on a street car, but on a sub 10 second car it's not much different than being totally broke...
Right now it seems too broad of a scope of build to really give any advice.
