Finally..........valve springs have shown up!


People will be seeing this on the street again in the near future.......






My valve springs finally showed up today! Now I have to put prick together and send it over to Charlie at The Race Shop for some dyno time and tuning. Interior is almost put back together too.

Its not stripped, its just not completely assembled yet. The car has a factory interior minus the drag buckets.

Manley Nextek springs. The same ones the Pro Stock boys use. They are supposed to last alot longer. If nothing else, they look cool. They are shiny!

Not sure what you are getting at but its not an excuse. A couple months ago the whole car was gutted to update the roll cage and rewire the car. It takes time to reassemble things, especially when you work 70+ hours a week.

There is nothing under the hood right now. As soon as I finish assembling the engine it is going to the dyno.
