begining the next step of my build!
Well, I got a lot of parts coming in lately and some to be picked up this week. The biggest of which is the Dynamic Mighty Mite C4. Last week I recieved the Strange 10 ways shocks and struts for all corners, wow, there really nice quality pieces, and the RVMB gate plate for my pro stick shifter. This week I should be getting the Spearical bushings for the 8.8, and the upper and lower torque box reinforcement kit, both from upr. My buddy picked me up some gt spindles, rotors, and calipers, which I will get some reman units from advance or autozone, just to get the car to stop better. Mind you, the notch was an original 4 cyl car. The rear drums, shoes, and hardware kit is in the garage at my pops house(cause i don't have a garage at my house), justa waitin for some love. I also have a set of old school, Kenny Brown upper and lower control arm to install along with the built 8.8 rear, Today, I ordered some stainless steel braided brake lines and a bbk fpr with gauge, so, needless to say once i get the beast towed over to the rents garage, I'll be busy!
I'll be posting some pics for you guys within the next couple of days. Wish me luck!

ok, so its been a little while but I've made some progress with the car. I just picked up my Dynamic Racing Mighty Mite C4. I also picked up a new converter too. its about a 26-2800 stall which should work fine for now. The rear is completely out of the car and I have about 50% of the mounting locations for the upper and lower control arms welded to the body. I've read and seen some fast cars rip the upper mounts right out of the chassis, so while I have it apart, might as well right.
I was supposed to have a friend help me with a few things but he's a lazy ass%$#* and its takin a little longer to get the process finished. I was also supposed to get some 5.0 spindles from him, but it doesnt look like thats gonna happen now, so oh well. I have yet to take any pics but maybe tonight or tomorrow I might, if I remember.

So over the weekend I got out that POS c4 that I had in the car since I first got the car set up. Boy was that a headache. The long tubes make it very difficult. Bacically I had to muscle the thing out from between the headers. But, most importantly, its out. Now I'm waiting to get the new flexplate then I'll put the Dynamic Mighty Mite in. Looking foward to getting that together.
BTW Anyone have an extra FRPP aluminum Driveshaft that I could buy?

ya know, i've got some on the phone however, I should have the wife delete some of the pices she has of the baby off the camer so I could actually take some worth while pics of the car. On thursday night i mounted the shifter in its new location. I moved it back about 8" or so, and now in the area where the cigarette lighter and ash tray used to be. I really like the way it feels over there. Besides, now I have a place for my coffee, or redbull.
