Cool man. Are you going to take it to the track when it's done? We need some times and videos of the abuse. :)

Your motor is pretty heavy, take that out, im sure it will free up a few hundred pounds. great for a couple tenths in the 1/4 mile.

stock times for the 03-04 ( strongest out of all the production years ) is in the mid 13's.....some run low 13s some run high 13s but mid 13s are the norm on factory rubber.

sorry I didnt get pics guys........when I went in they already had the blower off and cooler out and I got pre-occupied with watching them. I left the camera in my work truck and didnt think about it until we closed up for the night :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall:

Dont fret......you have my WORD that I will have pics tonight. As far as progress, the exhaust is completely off and the cooler is out and has been cleaned, so tonight will be the re-install of everything. Im not sure if it will be done tonight but Saturday for sure :bunny3: :bunny3:
