I think I mentioned to you earlier that I want to be quicker than 10.3 on pump gas. I maybe looking to get my son a FD. He is 15 now. I'm looking for something close to stock to be on the safe side fro a young driver. It'll be fun for us to work on together.

How you doing Bobby? I spoke to Paul at liberty this week and he mentioned you. We talked about the shafts and they are in the works of building more! Only down side is they will be a lower grade material. He says they will be plenty strong, just wasn't profitable using the old material.

*Get the 10thAE off the backburner and hopefully have it cranking over by the end of Nov.

Doing well. I think I will be moving to SE Georgia soon from Ohio. I really like Paul and I'm enjoying the tranny. I was going to get the upgraded shaft but he sold the last one before he got to mine. No problems so far in the mid 600 whp range.
Looking forward to getting to the track now with the line lock and 2 step working. I'd really like to get down to your times......Maybe I should just let you drive my car.LOL Take care man.

Looking to get the FB into the 11's but I need to find my power for the NA Semi p-port setup first.

I will be moving over to Fuel injection this summer once I return from the desert.

That would be awesome!

I want more info on the 50-75 shot. I have been considering this for years. What kit did you go with and what all is involved in the tune?

Get my FD into the 10's as she sits with FULL interior, A/C, PS and all the other creature comforts...

I changed to ET streets and knocked off .4 secs from my 1/8 mile times a few weeks ago... Haven't been to the track cause of some issues but hopefully she will see the track this week or next..

I hope to finally hit the track this year, I recently sold my touring and pick up a clean automatic base model that I plan to do the manual swap and put the parts that I have to good use. Look out for my s475 build coming soon.lol
