Just needs more weight on front with the radials. Car is fine, didn't touch headers or oil pan. Oh he don't like bars so that's not a option at this time.

Making some power. No we didn't have any with us. Brett thinks it will be faster to eighth with steep gears in it. I'm no expert, but it looks like it could have used 100# up front before making the gear change. It would probably still be quicker to the 1/8th with the added weight.
