The new updated work was just recently put in by my brother and I. We just finished the new cage last night.

after alot of measuring and remeasuring, checking and double checking. We cut half of my cage up and some of the floorboard to fit the new frame and 4 link in. then we had to re-install the new cage, we call it version 2.0 and for now it has to wait until I can get some more $$. Next up is the frame for the fuel cell, and then the interior paneling.

My brother is making me new door panels out of one piece aluminium and keeping the power windows. Should look sweet once they are all done.

I bought the intake new from JMFabrications. I don't remember what I paid. I know it wasn't cheap. Got the receipt upstairs, just too lazy to go look. :) The extra bungs are for nitrous.

 

Jeez....out of all those photos and the extent of this build you guys zero it down to the intake :wacko:

The wheels way above on the previous post were just for mock up...they cost way too much for me..($480 a wheel) The new ones are Greg Weld wheels. I like em! I'm thinking about spacing them out so they come closer to the fender....should I or not?

Finally got the new shoes put on the front, and mounted up the fuel cell and wheel tubs. Doing the floor pans is gunna be a complain! I was trying to do a search for other drag cars to help me get an idea for how things can be done....but I didn't find hardly anything so we are just going to wing it!! :P

Thank you, People just think that these things can get thrown together over the weekend.... If I were trying to do something like this, I would love to have some help....Only help I have is my brother. were doing the best we can with what we have. Trying to follow the rules as much as possible. Other than that, we just keep taking it one step at a time and do our homework before we do anything. Again....thaks for appreciation.

hey.....nice wheel selection.....haha. they looks oddly familiar....curious what size tire your running on your fronts

 

I like your car man...looks clean, and old school muscle.

I think they're 4". I will find out for sure when I get the tires off. I still need the rears for my Ford rear end.

Stumbled upon this thread. Looks complaining'!!! Always wondered what it be like to install a four link, and was always intimidated by the job, but these pics are great, gives me a good idea of how to go about it. :blink: Leave it up to SQC.com members to look at these pics, and decide to talk about the intake manifold. :rolleyes: Edited by mitsusqueeshee

Got my battery box done, standard aluminium. Door panels cut and bead rolled. Had some fun jacken around with the roller and made a mitsu simbol, not sure what I'm gunna do with it yet. Got my new wheels in some time ago (11"x15") with a seriously deep dish!, haven't got the tires yet. Once I get tires I'm taking the axle to Mosier and have it narrowed
