Sorry man. I got in a big hurry when I left FL and I forgot to take the money shot! I've got the frame pretty much done with the motor and tranny all bolted in. I should finish GLOCK's disc brake conversion and my fuel setup when I go back home in February. Hopefully the body will be ready to wet sand at that point also. I'll snap some more photo's then............

Thanks! You gotta love Victory Red! Hopefully, it will all be painted by April/May.

I have to take some of the blame. I could have stayed in PCola and retired, but a Commanding Officer's job was to hard to turn down.

Couple of quick shots with the motor and tranny installed. The factory fuel lines look like they were designed to go there, . I'm going to switch from dual lines to a single line due to a small "upgrade" I'm adding, .

I also started installing the rear discs using, Glock's brackets. I'm running them on the front side of the axle just like Frizzle Fry (monkey see, monkey do ). I still haven't got all my parts in yet, so I will probably have to finish them the next time I come in (March). Hopefully, the prototype headers will be in by then too.

I don't think so. I don't even think these have a part number yet since they are prototypes. I'm sure they'll be listed soon.

Well, I spent a little over two weeks at home, but due to a jaw surgery (broken on both sides and moved forward, ), I didn't get much done. I was saving this as a suprise, but I might as well throw some pictures of it on here now since it was the only progress I made. I'm hoping for 450-500 HP with the new addition.........
