miller11386 Posted March 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2014 Well started to tear what I can apart while the car is in storage... Injectors look a bit rough.: And finally fixing the leaking intake manifold: Thanks to Alex at BP Autosports for taking the time to weld the oil laden plenum back to the cast runners. It wasn't easy but I was happy with how it came out.... don't have to worry about leaks anymore! I will post pics once all the work is done!

Fubar231 Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 Man this thing is going to be a serious car once you get everything together on it and get it to a strip. What are your goals for it? Low 9s / High 8s or a certain trap speed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miller11386 Posted March 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 Man this thing is going to be a serious car once you get everything together on it and get it to a strip. What are your goals for it? Low 9s / High 8s or a certain trap speed? I'd like to just get a clean pass that doesn't bog horribly! The car built to run, so it will be all up to me to drive it. I know several guys on the forums have capable 6 speed cars and still have yet to crack that 8 second barrier. Its like hitting a MLB fastball, or running a marathon. Even with all the correct tools, a 8 second 6 speed is very difficult! My goal is a single digit pass this year. If I do that, I will be happy.

dover Posted April 7, 2014 Report Share Posted April 7, 2014 I see collector on your plates, you can register it that way? Doesn't that only require one plate too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miller11386 Posted April 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2014 I see collector on your plates, you can register it that way? Doesn't that only require one plate too? Yes that is correct. It also exempts you from E-check as well if you are in a county that requires it. Other benefits as you mentioned are you are only required to run 1 plate, and you have less strict exhaust requirements. Also there are no mileage restrictions with these plates Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
