.(sickkkk, ground brakeing ,History in the making). QUEST for 8's.. my $$ is on Tony1 Palo (he already went 9.19@167MPH!! <~~ and that was the OLDDD SET-UP!!
i'll try to run in Turbo Street class ( small class about 8-10 cars) and they run on DOTs . 235-60-15's FTW!!!

..ok so i went to the hardware store and got these spiffy cooler mounting tabs , lol
i wanted the cooler to sit out a bit from the Radiator support because of the gate placement.. it cleared the cooler,, but it was still 1/2 inch between the two .. and i was worried that under load if the motor moved the gate would reach the cooler.
EZ fix!!
