So i wanted a cup holder panel for the line lock and 2 step and felt that $80 bucks for the nitrous outlet one was a little much...So i made one out of spare material. Not bad for a 1st attempt. Im going to make another but out of a thicker material. Mock installed

small update...

Cams degreed and a few things done... Completely restored the dash.. deleted all airbags, stereo, stereo harness/connectors, a/c connectors, airbag connectors and a few other things..hell i even painted the steering column. I deleted every piece of wire i did not need and re-wrapped the harness... Basically the only wires under the dash is for the instrument cluster, turn signals and wipers

1st off heres the crap i removed from behind the dash. All A/C stuff, heater stuff, insulation, vent ducts and air bags ect ect ect

Complete dash removed and dash cover separated. I attached the separated cover with meguiar's natural shine then supershine just to protect it.

Definitely a lot of attention to detail. I especially appreciate the effort put into cleaning the trunk area, after removing the Dynamat. I can only imagine how agonizing those 50 some hours were.

Sorry I'm a month late seeing your fuel line routing. If you plan on racing this at the track in any event, you should not have fuel lines mounted to the firewall. Otherwise your build is looking great!

(from 2016 NHRA rule book)
FUEL SYSTEM Any mechanical fuel pump and/or one electric fuel pump permitted. Must be installed outside of passenger area, away from tires and suspension. Electric pump must shut off with car’s ignition switch. Fuel lines may be changed to any size metallic line with in-line fuel filters and pressure regulators permitted; a maximum 12 inches of rubber lines for vibration connections are permitted. One cool can permitted. All fuel system components (regulators, cool cans, etc.) must be installed not less than 6 inches in front of firewall. Exception: Fuel-pressure-gauge isolators, with steel-braided line, may be mounted on firewall. See General Regulations 1:5.

Thanks for the info. I'll definitely take it into consideration and plan a good attack on that. At the minimum I could just probably unbolt the Y block from the plastic cowl and Pull It Away during track days..

Thanks brotha. Yeah it was a complete pain removing it all. I must have burnt myself 5 times with a heat gun.

Well... i got a up date for ya'll...I didn't take enough pics during but you'll get the point. Also please don't mind the video quality. My back camera is broken and only have a selfie cam. Why did I video it to facebook instead of my phone.? IDK. I'll take a better video this weekend with the Go-Pro and some good pics of the work. I can tell one thing. I've only have rev'ed it to 4500 and boy does it feel good..
