Anyway, I bought a parachute & mounting kit from Motion Raceworks. It's getting installed in early June & is well overdue, mainly for safety reasons.

Also, I have to get a neck restraint system, looking at the Hans.

The plan is to still keep the mph under 150 mph; it works with my racing strategy.

We got the parachute mounted; I'm not a big fan on how it looks on our car. Oh well, not much I can do about it.

We also got our front AFCO DA shocks converted over to coil springs. The conversion replaced our 4-year-old sagging Moroso front springs.

After 300+ passes on our ProCharged SBC we are putting it on a hub Dyno. I guess the main thing we'll learn is the HP & Torque peaks; not looking for any more power.
