Incredible! With all those "goodies" on that car you must be running out of things you can do to it?

I remember seeing your photoshop drawing and wondered what it would look like with actual paint. INSANE! :D

how did the meth go?

We have everything all plumbed in the car using the windshield washer tank, just need to get the electrical aspect set up and tuned. We had prior electrical issue that needed to be taken care of, now we are trying to finish up a fuel issue. Next project will be to finally get the Snow Performance H2O/Meth set up and dialed in.

LOL... Can't wait to see pics?? Heck, I can't wait to get it finally tuned in, with some of the other issues (electrical and fuel) that were/are priority, the Snow Performance Methanol/H2O kit is in the car and waiting! Certainly will keep you all informed as to progress. We are waiting on some parts to come in to finish up the fuel issue, once that is completed its time to get that Meth/H2O kit finished up and certainly will be posting some photos and some dyno results!

Smokin who sells that hood anyway? I have looked around and find similiar hoods, but not the same?
