No, I didn't clean it. I just took it as it was, parked it in the first place I found to pull off, and took pics

This pic shows how my hood doesn't line up because I need a new hood hinge (from when my intake manifold blew a hole through my hood, and lifted it. We replaced the hood with an OEM, but we didn't realize at the time we needed to replace the hinge also because it had stretched)

As retrodrive stated above, 1000+ HP. The highest dyno I've seen for this car is in the mid 900's, but i do not doubt that it is now over 1000hp, considering the rest of the CL members say so

7 aph? Not bad at all, my cat makes 12 aph but he's a fat bastard so the power-to-weight ratio is terrible. He pulls a nice holeshot on catnip though...

Ethan man you've definitely earned some trouble-free seat time and i'm glad to see it happening, with all the time and money (did I mention money?) no one deserves it more. Looking forward to some slips from that sleeper Q-ship, keep us posted E.B. ...

As soon as it's ready for the track you guys will see the slips

I still need to get a lot of things finished up before it is track ready though, but I anticipate it all being done in time for when the tracks open up again around here in Feb/Mar.
