It's red. Here's a pic:



It's got the front plate bracket on it now, as the Great Meadows police have no sense of humor. I've got to weld in some converters and get a good inspection sticker. I've got the converters, now I just have to find the time to weld 'em in.

Speedster - I was hoping to find one that didn't cost a bazillion dollars.

Seriously, though. I'm on the fence about it. Last time I was at the track, the car ran a 13.13 @ 104 with a 1.7 60'. That was with dead-ass stock valve springs and rockers. Now it's got hotcam springs and 1.6 rockers, and the car pulls a *lot* harder up top.

But from what I've been gathering, the better the 60' gets, the more likely that the rear is going to go *boom*. I'd love to put a set of heads and a cam into the motor, but then I figure the rear is a definite gone job. So I can either make the car faster and probably blow up the rear, or put a better rear in the car and enjoy 13.0 - 12.90 with a car that shouldn't break.
