More progress, i tried one of my treads on one of the center lines and wouldn't fit so i've bought the pro stars off my dad, while i was at it, i've bought back the spool i was going to put a locker in but can't afford new shafts aswell so for the little street use it will get i'll put some 3.90s gears in and live with the spool, and seen as i'd bought just about everything off my dad apart from the 'glide and 'verter i thought to hell with it and bought the 'glide and 'verter too, so i now have just about everything drive train wise, this all gives me a great start and if i want to go quicker in the future(or when i can afford) the only upgrade will be to the motor the trans and axle should be bullet proof, the 'glide is an A1 racing transmissions piece good for 1200+ hp so i should never do any damage with my 400ish, and the center section is a nodular item with strange spool and mark williams shafts, will get some more pics soon, Also decided not to have a flat hood i'm going to have some sort of scoop, probably a low plain snorkel, (similar to Rob Smallworths SU Mod 56 ch*vy)

Been doing a bit more, dropped bonnet and boot lid at dales for fiberglass ones making, decided on a 3inch cowl, just got the rods back from being polished, street use has now gone way out the window, i've aquired some Koffel heads, and my dad has given me some big compression pistons (13-1) and a 620 roller cam,

You guys NEED to set up seperate accounts, most of your posts make no sense as we have no idea which car(s) you are going on about half the time.....

99% of the time we'll be on about the roadrunner, my dad barely ever uses it so we think no point really having seperate accounts

its me all the time, but to clarify this is my account (Marc not Jerry), my dad doesn't want an account he just asks me to post for him if he ever wants which is extreemly rare,
