As much as I have been fighting it.....I think I'm gonna have to admit that the car has become a (gulp) "Race car". So, 7 or 8 seconds shouldn't be too bad. ;)
I got a late start on the car for this winters updates, didn't even start until late January. I already posted pictures of the 25.5 roll cage upgrade. Anyway here is some progress pictures of some of the changes.
Under-hood intercooler was maxed out, so I had a new one built and put it inside...
I finally decided to update my roll cage from an 8.50 spec to a 25.5. Didn't want to cut out the whole cage and start over, so I just added the needed bars in C/M to my existing mild steel cage. I bent the Funny Car cage insert and the floor cross-member in my design. Finished it at 1:00 am...
