Hey Uncle E

WOW, so I finally got a chance to pull up that video. OH MY GOD, that's ....that's a religious experience. (No disrespect)

I am in awe of that monster, and if I hadn't seen the frame and body, I'd be SURE you were gonna twist it into a pretzel the first time you stomp on the gas.

That thing is SCARY AWESOME.

I bow to your insanity!

Make sure you put the loyal order of the police sticker on the back of it, make sure they know you are a brother, maybe undercover would be a nice touch. F&F idea could get you out of a WTF were you thinking ticket.
Good luck on the install!

That car was just a Hemi, Erics car is Pontiac. F&F car was a movie car, and they take liberties. OK, the F&F blower car is cool, but not Eric's GTO! I'm sure that car, even the show car wasn't anything near the level of build of Eric's car, his is SICK and perfect.
Just a hemi that could do wheel stands, lol.

Yeah I cant wait to see this car on the road.

Heh... not! If you watch how it comes up it's pretty obvious that was movie trickery. It's like the front end comes up with the car standing still, then it moves ---- thangs won't work that way it real life.

It's in...sort of....

Richie and I installed the 4L80e to the engine...then lovingly lowered it into the engine compartment.......We have two previously "anticipated problems" 1) the steering linkage. 2) the blower pulleys hit the fan housings (I need another inch)....but who dosen't I need to wait until the front fenders are installed. Then modify the rad support accordingly...maybe.
