She wouldn't have looked too nice with the old dark green steel doors back on it. Haha. Shame it didn't run quicker, considering it hit 167mph on one run. I wasn't up there at all over the w'e, but looking forward to seeing some footage

Keas built glide, tce converter. cp pistons/spool rods, jpc inlet, 6boost exh, precision 7175 (the 'mid' frame version not the big one). Curently the head is basically stock, just has better springs and a tighe 966. Having abit of a break at the moment cause i have put so much time into the car the last 6 months but once i am ready i plan to build a good head. On 27psi at the moment, plan on running alot more once i have a good head and some more driving time! Yeah im not into the build thread thing, the people who know me see the car enough through the build to not need internet updates Thanks for the kind words! Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
