Fixed my fueling problem with a larger feed hose.
Now i have a traction problem. Over the winter i'm going to loose weight off the front end, and transfer weight to the rear. Then redo my suspension bar links mounting positions. Buy summer again. I want to get this car into the 8's

Link below is with the fueling fixed , and as you can see my traction problem

You ever thought about a one piece front end? Could make it out of fiberglass to help reduce the front weight.

I just bought a aluminum gt4 hood along with the bumper. I also have install light weight drag brakes, and i have bought a Chromoly K membler with control arms. All of this will be removing some serious weight.

update,, The car is at 2450 lbs with me in it. Adjusted rear suspension, tuned the motor, entered my first race this year at import face off, Off the trailer the car went straight with a little bit of wheel spin on the launch , 2nd and 3rd gear to the floor. Pulled the shoot, at the end. Made my record pass of this car 8.6 at 172 mph. I qualified as fastest in my class... The event is Import Face off,,, My class is Forced Induction Pro. 1st race was up against a AWD honda civic,,,, Won that race,,,, Next race Nissian Gtr,,,, Won that race,,,,,, Then a Bmw with Twin turbos,, Won that race,,,,, Won my class Placed 1st, Won a big Trophy and $1,200 .

The launch feels amazing, just pulls me straight into the back of the seat . Then after 172 mph I pull the shoot, again what an amazing feeling of slowing down so fast and not even having to touch the brake till later. This car is coming around. Things are starting to work.
