True, but not adjustable...

We are looking for the best all around setup for decent money..

Being able to turn the knob and be drag race ready, is the idea...
and turn the knob back for some canyon carving on the way home...

:cool:

[Twelvz]

didn't think of that

we'll talk soon :cool:

DAMN! You did all the right things to that thing! I hear you can lose significant time from your slips with the weight reduction in your suspension alone! Are those the bad-ass Edelbrock heads? Looks good! Be sure to post some vids and some slips!

This cost a buddy of mine (Since he came to me to help with the project.....:cool: ) around $30k, including the price of the car.

BTW: The RS used to be black :cool:
