Chassis has been done for a while, finally getting paint done. Have some graphics to go but this is the base paint so far.

Looks good! That's going to be really sick when it's finished. Keep us posted!

Details on this?

The engine is based off of the Lima 2.3 that started use in the Pintos. Most everything is aftermarket now though using HD block and XT head from Esslinger Engineering. Still stock stroke billet crank with billet BME rods and pistons. Big Stuff 3 engine management with nice air/water intercooler in the cab. Powerglide trans with billet 8" converter, 6500rpm stall. Single 7675 CEA Precision turbo right now, custom header and intake by me. The list is long on this car. Plan on a little No Prep racing and some grudge matches.

Recently just finished the backhalf work. It's now ready to test minus waiting on the final items in paint and a couple small mechanical issues I plan to change on the car.

This was the car on stock suspension doing a little testing in 2015.
