The car was up on the lift ABOVE the Code Red Mustang the whole time so I didn't get a chance to take any top/side pics of it. Here are a few of "under"
1) 9 Inch Diff Installed with Pedders bushings
2) Undercarriage all painted black satin
3) Black undercarriage - low boost fuel lines and aircraft electrical hookups
4) Pic of engine on dyno from my cousin who stopped by last night

Also, the car has already been fully assembled - engine, transmission, everything so it once the engine comes off the dyno it goes back together very quickly.

Don't forget about me. I'm not done with my car JUST yet. =P

That thing's a beast! Now, call me stupid if you must but where does this monster breathe in air from. I see the intercooler from the turbos to the intake, but where is it getting fresh air from? Does it? This is still foreign to me.

Is the throttle body hidden in that first snout? Like a twin butterfly setup?

That's what makes this build unique, is all the. uhh. unique. ideas. (that came out retarded)
