I also have long pockets & short fingers, but when I have to go for surgery I don't go reading books tring to figure out if I could be a surgeon to save myself loads of money.. get my point?
I believe there's a reason Rick Jones, Tim Mcamis & all the other top chassis builders charge what they charge.. Prostock is the most competitive class in NHRA with close to 30 competitors all within a tenth of each other and only about half of them get to qualify.. Also they're all making around the same power so chassis & clutch setup plays a Key roll in these cars

Good luck on your project, the front overhang looks cool expecially with the S8 bumper.. It would be interesting to see how your DIY chassis perform against some of the big dogs..good luck

BTW The Mx6 is using a standard 20b inlet just like 'DaQuino's Matt Black Rx3 and the rest of 20b's in the PAC stable

that matt black rx3 you mentioned is going to run a different setup soon

I don't know if it's just bad luck or a sign from above but Joe had some of the worst luck in recent times.
Some say it's not bad luck but you really have to stop and think when stuff goes wrong so often. Thank god no one has been seriously injured.
