clark98gt Posted August 22, 2012 Report Share Posted August 22, 2012 F8L Gt, could you post up a list of what you have as far as suspension set up or make a new thread with everything you have. I would appreciate it, I plan on hitting the track more next year and would love to do some suspension overhaul first. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F8L GT Posted February 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 Transmission rework Ready to go back in Here's a custom 3 chamber mid pipe I fabricated for my car While the transmission was out, I mounted exhaust hanger mounts to my drive shaft loop. There will be 2 hangers coming off the chamber I made on my mid pipe. Using my transmission jack to push my mid pipe up where I want it before welding the hangers on Got my exhaust hangers on. now I just need to get my band clamps for the mufflers and fab up some turn downs. Turn outs cut Turn outs tacked into place In the midst off baby duty I managed get the output shaft seal in and got the exhaust painted up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the.greg Posted February 6, 2013 Report Share Posted February 6, 2013 I've been following your build for quite a while now. I'm beyond impressed with the times you run@260rwhp! You can drive like a boss and your suspension does work man! My setup is basically totally opposite, but thats because I don't care for drag racing much. I still have huge respect for your setup and what you do with it. Keep up the good work sir! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
