My 4.8 did rape a honda today. Was kinda a grudge match haha. A kid that works at one of your competition shops was leaving work as i was heading home. Did his normal HAHAHAHAHHAVTECH pulls through first to catch me he kept going, so i gave him a ear ringing run through second, Sounded sweet echoing through down town.

But another idea, mount it behind 1 of the 2 cig light holes? I am putting in the full console.

I have thought about a 100 shot, but right now i am just trying to get a more reliable drive train. I did think about that, but i prefer not modding the cluster.

How big of a shift light did you go with. Some f-body guys put them in the a/c vent.

As zippy asked, how big's the light? You want it somewhere where you can see it in or close to your field of vision while driving...ac vent, top of the steering column, maybe a-pillar?

use up that space to the left of the column, usually the four wheel drive selector switch goes there. Either that or one of the cig lighters would be decent too.
