Transmissions are way too damn expensive, what one are you looking at getting? My car is pretty much the same as it was end of the year last year, minus a little weight.

What are you hoping to run with that beast?

He keeps telling me I should get a dog box. Those are a little to spendy for me. I'm hoping for a 9 second pass this year. I think it should be possible. I'll be upgrading the rear axles. I'm also looking for a nice set of sticky tires.

That a lot of money for a dog box. Ever think about going auto if you're going to spend that much?

How much power do you think you're going to make?

Good luck on the 9second pass! Hope you can get it this year.

Yeah, I have thought a lot about going auto, and eventually I might end up doing it. I'm going to get it to 800awhp and see what that will land me et wise. I'm thinking that should be a good power level to acheive my goal. Along with Some broken parts I'm sure lol.
