We did the usual stripping of everything not necessary, put in a rollbar, did torque arm, sway bar, replacement springs, control arms, shocks in the rear. Had Greg at FTI build us a converter (call him, much less $$$ than a Yank and FAST!) we also did a non-lock up kit in the tranny since it will be track only. Ed Wright did a chip for us, we put on headers w/ muffs, etc. I tried to use the 7.5 inch 10 bolt but it didn't last long. Luckily some friends helped us out with a killer deal on a 12 bolt. The motor is BONE STOCK w/ 160k on the clock and it still goes 4 tenths under. We plan on doing the bullet cam but just haven't gotten around to it yet.
Here is the kicker. The car is pretty fast, its EASY to race, and DEADLY consistent. I have a total investment of just over 6k and it has paid for itself in about a season and a half!!! I ran it last year in D/PS and did pretty well and the kid is having a really great FIRST year in a big car including winning stock at the Bradenton Nitro Jam!! Hopefully we will be heading to Memphis in October!
The only downside is we have friends with 30k++++ in true, legal, stockers who are PISSED at us cause we folded em up in our "beater"! Once I bring em a cool one its all good again. WELCOME IN!!!

Hey Kenny!
You Guys rock in Div2
$30k stockers easy but many are near $100k.
We almost qualify as Dime Racer.
As time goes our Pure Stockers are upgraded like all cars.
Perfect class for any classic car and still maintain its value.
