Damn you Dusty, never satisfied

The wheels are Boyd Coddington Smoothie II's rears are 18x10, fronts are 18x8, 295/45s out back and probably some 255/55s up front. I'd really like to sell these 295's in all honesty and get some 305/45 MTs for street tires. Thanks for the Compliments guys, I finally feel like its getting somewhere.

Kurt, there's more clearence there than it looks like. I'm going to save notching it for last resort. I just don't feel right hooking a trailer to a frame that I've been cutting on. Engineers spent thousands of hours making that frame how it is, I doubt I can do any better. But if I have to, I'll consider it.

Ill be off Monday picking up my converter and touring Circle-D. That and a slip yoke (which is also on the way) are the last two "hard parts" I was missing. I've still got sevral things coming from Summit that need to go on before the motor goes back in but its not far off...

Also, I've got everything in hand minus some battery terminals to relocate my battery as well, complete with powdercoated box and Moroso NHRA Legal master cutoff switch.

Like I said before.... Slowly but surely

Oh trust me, I'm ready to see it myself. This turbos not all that big honestly, its just a 78 but the housing makes it look a little larger I suppose. I'm waiting on my revised cold side piping from Kyle to get here, then ill have a complete kit. All the stuff from Summit should be here hopefully tomorrow.(Header wrap, spray, plug wires, batt box, switch, and something else I think LOL)

I'm shooting for possibly sitting the motor back in it this week some time. Then I get to remember where my wiring harness goes
