Car looks great Jeff. Always see fb pictures on my phone and those don't do it justice at all vs on a actual computer screen

I’ve been sliding around for a while here .

Atleast make it safe to be able to run it here and there but long term I’d consider going turbo at some point I think.

Blower cars are so fkn loud. I love my blower stuff but I’m not sure if I’m bored or I want to quiet it down some. Or if I want more control over power. Or a mix of all of it

Been doing the blower thing a while now. Cars been in the 5s conservatively in the 1/8 and it’ll probably go mid 5s . It’s been .76 and driven to work same night. Which is 65 miles ish round trip .

I’d like to go faster and maybe have it slightly more docile down the road later on. Right now I want to finish what I started with the blower.

Had the car out with my stepfather in it for the first time in years. Figured I’d get one rip in before it snows and really is salted.

Did a pull off a roll in second and shifted at almost 20 psi his face was priceless LOL . This isn’t a dude who’s afraid of speed either but he’s never been in something like this ( his words) LOL

Love it! Rebuilding my 8.8 was probably the most enjoyable/satisfying part of my Fox journey so far. Looking forward to watching this one come together!!
