I noticed all the sales you have going in the for sale section. Did you buy this car just to part out?? :shrug:

Or just going a totally different route?

Changing a couple of things, and just getting rid of some of the extra stuff I have. (Don't really need 2 mid-pipes)

I've pretty much made up my mind about what I want to do as far as performance goes so I'm going to slowly start moving in that direction.

Just to update .... so far I've swapped the x-pipe out in favor of the prochamber and also had the tail-pipes welded back on.

The Draglites are going bye-bye in favor of a set of 03 Cobra's.

Next I've got to replace the harmonic balancer. (vibration)

Also have a blown shock on the driver-side rear that wants some attention.

Took the car to steele to see how it would do as it now sits ...

R/T .397
60' 2.00
330' 5.87
1/8 9.05 @ 77.54
1/4 14.02 @ 99.74

I feel like the 60' was pretty good considering the suspension is completely stock with a blown shock on 255 street radials.

Something else is killing me on the top end though. I replaced the bad harmonic balancer and that helped the drivetrain vibration a little, but it's still there around 3500 rpm and up.

:yup:

May invest in a new shortblock due to this vibration ... I'll go ahead and make some of the changes I'm wanting then if that's the case. But I'm going to spend some more time trying to track down the shakes and shivers first
