He said building parts - not removing them!

If only.

My stuff tends to be on the more subdued side of the hobby - needs to fit and look stock(ish). The turbo engine in my MCSS is supposed to fit under the stock flat hood - although I do have a cowl hood for it. I relocated the battery a few weeks ago to allow for the filter to be placed in the void.



Looking under the car the only "tell" should be the 4" down pipe/exhaust.

It is an E85 build, and there is an AFE dryflow filter on the shelf - Mama didn't raise no fool.

And a sick truck intake, right? lol
Lots of success with non-intercooled e85 builds... A buddy of mine is at 1100whp without one, similar setup.

Should be interesting. I went the opposite and wanted lots of refinement and a stoooopid fast car. Love these things.

What was your price before taxes? You must have got a good deal with all the incentives now. My car was delivered in the winter. I have supposedly the first Canadian Redeye delivered. I was $105 before tax:cry:

To my knowledge there are no active Canadian incentives. I got the car for a very fair price, but I am not in a position to disclose the figures right now.

They even include a complementary White Snake cassette and a sleeveless Iron Maiden t-shirt. We actually have matching "hounds tooth" car seats to go in the car.

And, yes this car is going to be an exercise in value engineering. Just wait until I start building parts for it - got my new plasma cutter in the mail last night.
I like the phrase "value engineering".
I was thinking along those same lines.

When you see the build sheet for a bare bones car... it really doesn't feel bare bones.

This sounds like a cool project. I hope you do a separate build post once you get the car.

Naaaah... you are just going to have to wade through a few weeks of nonsense and BSing to find the good stuff. ;) Part of the fun is the procurement process.

But, yeah - I'll update the first post with pics and crap once the car arrives.
