Money and simplicity.
FI: Sullivan elbow $300 TB $300 MAF $300 Injectors $300 Rails $200 SCT/tune $650 And every time I change a jet or anything, another $125-150 for a retune. Not too fond of any local tuners. F.A.S.T: $2500 (plus all the above) Bad ass race carb from Pro Systems that I can tune when and wherever w/o kissing someones ass hoping they dont blow my shit up : $800 I like the way carbed motors look in smooth engine bays. 1 wire to the water pump, one to the alt, and thats it

Well, doesnt look like I'll get as much done as I hope. I start the Sheriff's academy next Wed( ), so this will most likely be sitting for the next 5-6 months But I'll still be buying lots of parts b/c I'll be making more $$$$

Set the motor in there to see how it all fit so far (and hung the fenders to see hood clearance). Still need the carb and filter so I doubt my Cervini hood would've fit...

Interior almost done. Airbag delete panel should be here soon. It will have dzus fasteners on it and my ignition system and nitrous controller will sit on a shelf behind it.
Need gauges, shifter, and steering wheel hub, quick release, and wheel.

Darren,
That thing is just killer looking. And with the black cam covers it reminds me of an old hemi mopar
