Not even close...Joe's car has been down over a year, and what you refer to is like the rest of us...just tossing around ideas.
I think JR has a Viper V-10 in his car by now.

this is the lightning car, correct??? I can definately see why someone would pay that much for it. It definately attracts attention.
Nice parts...I hate you, I hate you, I hate you, I hate you, I hate you, I hate you, I hate you, I hate you, I hate you

Not yet.. The new tubro looks great (along with the rest of the bay)... I think JR would do a V10 Viper Motor if he could get a nice 100mm Turbo on there94GTLaserRC said:

IMO, $25,000 is alot. I paid $7k for mine a year ago. If I put in $18,000 more, it could be in the running for King Of The Street. 
I wish I had the "problem" of trying to decide if I should take $25,000 for my car.
just my $.02.

I don't really see it as a problem. I will be losing money on the deal but its a chance to start over... And Have all new parts all at once.. accentually a new car customized to ME. Before this guy even offered i was preparing the car for TRUE Street Competition. My ULTIMATE goal is an 8 second TRUE street car. Last i looked the faster True Street comp guys average around 9.5 ET.
kinda funny you can take 25,000 dollars and make a completely custom car (including perchase price) to your liking for the most part, that will smoke any $100,000+ lambergini porche or ferriri (sp?). May not touch them on a road coarse but thats not what its being designed for. This will include paint, body kit, 800 rwhp motor, tranny, rear end, etc with the A/C and cruise...(maybe i wont be able to get everything at once but most of it) If this ACTUALLY goes through i will call it the 25000 dollar challange... to buy and build a STREET car (94/95 mustang), drive it to the track put it into the 9's AT LEAST and then drive home with the A/C on, And hopefully with a decent street tune so i can skip a gas station here and there
really it would be like giving your car to rousch or Saleen but with not as big of a price tag and more performance.
What is sad is i have already put this amound of money in a car once. But it just doesn't seem that way sence it didn't happen all at once and i didn't have a true goal in mind. i would have deffenetly done some things differently the first time around and got a lot more out of what i have for cheaper.

I would have no problem taking 25K for that car and laughing all the way to the bank.
I will be interested in seeing results for those heads, they are not messin around.

Accept i will be the only competiter in this competition i made up. This is like a dream to me.. Its not even all that much money. Mustangs are probably the best build your own dream car designs there ever was. AFTERMARKET RULES!!!
if someone gave me $18k, i'd take the challenge!

What made you decide on these heads? When I talked to jegs a couple of weeks ago, the flow data they gave me was as follows:
.400 .500 .600 .700
258 288 307 332
153 177 194 202
Considering 247cc intake runners, it seemed like they did not flow as well as I thought. This is especially true for the exhaust side. I have decided that the AFR 225s might be a better fit for me since they flow alot more on the exhaust side and the smaller runners will aid in velocity. I guess if you have a blower, then that changes the equation though.

For one the price was a little better. For 2 I wanted to try something a little different, try something that not many other people have. It may bite me in the butt but then again it may not...V8SHME8 said:
