Well, just found out the Shearer manifold has arrived as scheduled and is a work of art. I will see it tomorrow when I drop off all the Buschur pieces. I'll take some pics too. Mike, crew, and Crispeed will be hard at work getting the car dialed in for it's next outing and hopefully the moons will align and will shed an 8 sec pass upon us


I also might of bought the new baby transporter today Sorry about the poor pic, but I only had my phone with me. Trading both the mini and SS in. I've tried selling both with no luck I'll know for sure on Monday...

Well, guys I finally saw it. It is beautiful as expected. Thank you so much Ron@Shearer for a fine piece. It should be installed and tuned on Thursday if Mike can find the time to squeeze me in...

Thanks very much for everything David. I gave Mike all the parts you sent over today. The kit is super nice and very complete. I too can't wait. It's time to get back in the car and "DO WORK"... Dyno numbers and times coming soon...

Sounds like a very reasonable goal. I would expect AMS to come out and dust off the car when you start getting close!

Yes, I'd expect that too, seems to happen once a year, so I'm sure we will see them come out this year. An 8.42 is a tough goal to beat, I'm glad I'm not chasing that anymore. I'll stick to street cars, I hope I never own another drag only car.

Yes sir, when I saw it I was like OMG thats mine Well the car is in good hands at Mike's shop so time will tell. Not too sure about the AMS thing, but we'll see how the car runs with 800whp. If it does what I think it will then an 8.42 might not be too far out of reach with another 200 whp. Lots going on right now with an incoming baby. So just not sure I'll even try. I might just leave the car well enough alone and enjoy a high 8-low 9 second evo. Hard to mess with perfection. I really want to get some seat time now anyways. Every time I get use to a set up it gets taken apart for 3 months for a set up change of about 160hp. I'd like to go to the track at least wo nights without 3 months down time in between
