right now its going to have a 302 roller with a e cam 1.6 roller rockers gt40 heads and a 650 or a 700 holly carb im going to try both but im thinking the 700 will be a bit big.
I also have a c4 with a 3500 stall cov and a 9in out back with 4.56 gears. Since this is my first year im not looking for any big times im just learning 

but im saving my moneys to make a 351 stroked and twin turboed

no cage yet but it will as soon as I get 1500 up im going to http://www.rigidracecars.com/ to get my cage and subframe and a mini tub and torque box strengthened.

I plan in having 3 cams 1 in the bumper 1 in the cab 1 out side the you tube is going to be crazy

my motor ran 11s in a fox gt with 3.73

I have been bulding /buyying this car for 3 years thanks to a py job at kroger and a bitch girl friend. now I have a better job and a hotter girl friend thats bigger into cars then I am (its kinda scary) so this is the year im going to try for may 22TT at kill kare (before the cage)
