Project: Doing it myself

[USMCPONY]

"Street cars" now have 2000+rwhp lol. The Texas invitational is out of this world.

[draggin50]

Everything is bigger in Texas!!! Guess that goes for power numbers too! That's to rich for my blood though!

[USMCPONY]

The Alpha Omega is from Illinois actually. Most of those cars have over $400,000 into them and some of them cost $400,000 from the factory. Hell the traction control/fuel management system for the Vettes and Vipers that run the Texas Inventational cost $4,000. I guess I can scratch that off my list of parts I was going to buy.

[USMCPONY]

My fuel system came in today. Now I know why it cost so much.

[draggin50]

Nice!!! Just 1 pump?

[USMCPONY]

Look at the two shiny things in the bags lol

Injectors are here.

ID1700's

[draggin50]

Didn't even see the other pumps. Looks like a nice system. I need to order a set of injectors for mine. Probably go with the ID1000's. I won't make the power you are though. You on E85?

I will be on E85 once finished. Throw a F1x on that bad boy and you'll make a ton of power!

This is going to be harder than I thought. The pumps and the hanger are to big to fit into the hole in the gas tank. I'm going to have to take it all apart. Piece together the hanger and install the pumps/connectors inside the tank through the tiny hole. Looks like cut up hands and wrists are in my future.

Man seems like nothing is easy on those cars!

The thought has crossed my mind but Ill probably stick to what it has for this coming year and maybe go the turbo route next winter. Just stock pile parts all summer and go from there.

It would be something different and the f1x is nasty. Best sounding supercharger imo.

[draggin50]

They do sound nasty! Never know what Ill do.

A 4000lb Challenger just went 6.9@200+mph work a F1x.

I decided to try something I've never done before. And that is paint. I went to Autozone and got some taillight tent and clear coat. Went to Lowe's and got their taillight restoration kit. I sprayed one descent coat of tent then three coats of clear. Then I used 2000 grit sand paper and then I used a polishing pad to polish it. I'm extremely impressed on how they turned out. I can't get a good picture cause they reflect every bit of light and if I use flash they basically turn into reflectors. But they're a dark cherry color. You can still see a small bit of red so they're not completely blacked out. It's 12 degrees and snowing. Once I finish the turn signals and it warms up I'll install them and post more pictures.

Looks good, I always wonder how people tinted their lenses.

[draggin50]

That will look good once you get them installed! I keep thinking of tinting mine but Im still up in the air about it.

[USMCPONY]

These look so much better in person. I surprised myself. Mustang taillights have more angles. I think they'd be really difficult.

[USMCPONY]

Rear reflectors are finished. Pictures do not do these any justice. They look so good.
