Almost finished with the winter upgrades. Thought I would list the changes just to see the scope of it. Anti-Roll bar insatlled, Wishbone installed, Master cylinder moved under the floor, fire system added, chassis updated to 25.5 spec, added wide view racing mirror, relocated switch panel, lightened dash and made removable, lexan windshield added in stock gasket, added windshield center brace, added complete racepak data logger/display system, changed to 16v battery.
Might have missed something, but that list is longer than I expected. Even with the additions the car will still be considerably lighter. Hoping it is ready to put on the scales in about 3 weeks and hit the track immediately following.
Pictures to come when it is all back together since it is apart now to paint all of the cage.

Hi Brian Sounds like it wont be long before you have a pro stock car Keep up the good work and maybe we will see you up this way sometime this year.
416 stroker from Nick at Compu-flow. 11.14 in full street trim. Seems like a new best every time out. 11.06 open headers----so far!!

I'm not sure how far I am going to travel this year. Dad and Lonnie might have to come this way a bit if they want a piece.

Thanks Rickster. Hope to spend some quality time this year in the winners circle. Was real close last year with a couple of Runner ups and many Semi appearances. Hoping the additional toys will aid in consistancy and we can get it done this year.
