Decided to pull the B1 and go forward with the hemi, rack has to repositioned and new fuel tank built but progress is being made, apsects of the build have gone beyond my skills now and the fabricator working on the car is doing great work I will post progress pictures if there is interest

Very cool. Can we see more of the car? Do you have a class in mind? Not the most recent pic but what I have on the computer, have posted progress pics of the car in the past but the engine switch is the most recent update

Only really interested in getting this project running and at the track hopefully this summer at this stage no ET target in mind would just like to have it go point a to b as a start.

nice ride. this brings up a QQQQQ I've been thinking about. will BAE heads fit on a factory 440 block? Even if those heads could be made to fit, that stock 440 block would be reduced to shrapnel about 1 second into the run. LOL
