I've owned this car for 14/15 years. Had it professionally built slowly over time ensuring new mods worked before moving on to next mods. Typically when you see these cars for sale they have running problems or are not finished (project) cars. This car is done and ready to race with about $20,000 in upgrades
Last 1/4 mile time (done on a cool Oct day) was 12.1 at 124MPH (video avail, PM and I will send).
Dyno'd 4 years ago at 443WHP (Dyno printout avail) at the beginning of season, before final tuning. Which would equiv out to about 500HP (Crank).
Keep in mind this is only on a small 16G.
It is a Full Street trim race car. This was my daily driver in the summer time.
Whenever I raced I drove the car everytime to the track, and after racing, I drove the car back everytime (including the Ohio Shootout)!

Here is a list of mods done to the car with approx price I paid for parts (incl tax and shipping), not labor.

OKay only a few tire kickers at $6K

If there is anyone interested in the engine PM me.
If the engine sells I will go the part out way, it would be a shame but I need the money.
Obviously as the car is whole and running interested parties in the engine will be able to see how well and strong it runs.
