... ford 8.8", moser axles with a four link setup.... are you sure this isnt a drag car???
Ultimately, would you let your own mother drive that car in metropolitan traffic... your definition for street car is skewed friend.
Awesome build and when you get the suspension dialed in, find a Z06 and rape it for the christening ceremony

Ever seen a pro-street car? That's basically what I'm building, except mine will run it's *** off.
Z06? Please, those aren't any fun. Maybe a turbo busa

I know I'm a little late on this post but I figured better late than never. I came across a TII engine rebuild in a magazine quite a while back, the builder was from Langely B.C., Can. He did a TII rebuild that produced a reliable 700hp. I'll search my mags and try to find the article then I'll post his info( address and Phone #).

VWH, I just perused your thread again, and I must say.......DAMN!!!
Very nice work that you've accomplished so far (I've been away for a long time) and seeing the video of it running just puts a big *** smile on my face. With the location of the new radiator and the like, I just wanna ask because I'm curious, but with it being a pro-street, will the cooling be affected at all?

This car will eat babies.
Pro-street class, very nice. If the stock hood closes that would be pure sex! Something about stock appearing 'built' cars makes me go nuts. I recently cought up with a local Auto-X and Roadcourse instructor that drives a 3rd Gen Rx7 that looked completely stock, even when popping the hood everything looked stock(including all piping and intercooler), the only thing out of the ordinary was his aeromotive regulator that he tried to hide underneath some piping. Even his programmer was tucked away out of site in the glove compartment. Very evil street car with 385hp to the wheels on tap. Good luck with the build and have fun with the 'busas.

Alright............. it aint perdy, but I'm cutting the back end out of my car once it gets tuned so I didn't want to spend alot of time on it since it will get getting pulled back out.
Everything went smooth, the bulkhead in the engine bay was a pain though.
GOD, my camera isn't worth a darn!
