Wow, killer looking car. Engine looks mean. I might have to pick your brain about that fuel cell. Im getting ready to install the fuel lines to mine. Have some questions about which lines go where.

But sweet car! can't wait to see some other pics of it in action. :drive:

here's some pics befor ethe engine and trans went in last weekend. Not the greatest pics, but it's all I have on my desktop. The tail has been dropped 2 inches since and I cranked another 3/4 in. out of the front coil overs. Sits pretty sweet now. Stance is everything!

those are just some plain cheapie ebay covers I bought for 60 bucks, had billet specialties fill caps welded in, and powdercoated semi gloss black. The breathers are from Hardin Marine and have to be plumbed still to the recovery tank. I just wanted something super stealthy.
