1)assemble and dyno "THE 377" 2)build new step headers 1-7/8to2"to2-1/8 with 4"collectors & exaust3)upgrade to a Hutch built th-400 & a tighter no2 converter 4)re-wire car complete and upgrade to digital 7 ignition system 4)update chassis to 25.4 spec 5)upgrade Brakes6)add parachute 7)Tubular upper and lower control arms and new manual gear box 8)new wheels & tire's 9) go through whole car and tiddy up some less than professional instalations. The bad news I figure close to $12,000 to do all this the good news I can probably get somewhere between $2500 & $3500 for my old stuff.............hopefully make it to milan in june I'm gonna take the car to the shop in the next few weeks and dissasemble it and start selling off the old stuff and do final assembly on the engine

Hey Glenn, sounds like your going to be busy. A couple things that came to mind as I read this. Hutch also sells Neil Chance converters. If you can muster up a few more dollars, I would recommend this. Have you looked into which Digital 7 box you are looking for. #7530, #7531..... The reason I ask is I will be sellng my 7530 this winter and am going to the 7531. It has traction control where the 7530 that I will be selling does not. And lastly, Is there a reason you are not putting a rack and pinion in the car??? You would like that a lot more. You can look at my car if you wish and copy it if needed!!!! Don't get me wrong, I am not tellling you what to do these are just observations from someone that has gone through it. In the end it's all up to you!!!!!

Kevin , I may change to a rack but I think there is a weight adder in L/s for a modified front suspension I Guess I should go over to the Nsca Board and ask that ? by the time i add up rebuilding the tie rods center link and a new gear box I can justify spending the money of puting a rack in her I guess it would make building the headers easier too I would like to check yours out I will be interested in your 7530 when your ready. Glenn
