He had like green neons somewhere in the car

yes Garn, it's a coupe

Swap will begin once I get money for it, which should be by christmas. Piecing together all of the parts, just ordered the fuel pump a few seconds ago, $89 shipped...couldn't pass it up. I need a lot of stuff for it. Can't decide if I should get new wheels so I can actually move the power without spinning everywhere since the stock 240 rims are thin as shit or to just finish buying everything for the engine....decisions...

What was the outcome? From a roll? The guy I met with the GN name was Shane, and his car had aftermarket chrome wheels and huge street radials on the back.

The guy with the GN mentioned that he was having wastegate issues, it was blowing open and he wasn't pulling any boost, and then it would stick shut and he would be running like 30 psi. So I dunno, it could of been him and his car was running shitty. You would think a 600+ whp GN would pull on 433whp cobra, but I guess anything can happen.

It was probably a different guy I bet.. I saw on on Williamson Sat night, and I have seen the one I think you are talking about at Advance auto across from LB one time.. It had some type of drag radial like you said..

Is that Cobra Chads or his dads? nice car..

Jesse, You are correct sir. They are very over-rated. Give me your email address and I'l send you a pic if you want. You can post it if you want to. My dunbass doesn't know how to post pics


BTW, the pic will be a front/side view. Kinda different for you as you are used to seeing the back, quickly getting smaller and smalller.

Steve
