Very true about the gaskets, I think the gasket set for my 2.3 build was 225-250 something in that area

What kind of power/times were you running with the 3582 last year?

i pretty much maxed it out last year so thats why I'm thinking about it. basically I can handle the power just need to make sure I get what is truly needed as in wheels and tires and whatever else.
dsmdolney thanks for the info, andre actually sent out his manifold back to force to have john try and fix it, so if the extra room is needed maybe that style hood is the answer.

^ doesn't get much better than that.
Dsmdolney I took the brake booster, slave master etc out. The wires I took off drivers fender and pulled wires out and hung them out of the way. The wires that go thru the firewall I put in a bag and set on the ground. For the brake lines I pulled all the bolts and taped everything off and just pulled everything away from the firewall.
Haha yes people forget about the expense of gaskets, dowel pins, and bolts, it's the worst too because they add up fast and they are all boring parts to look at
Goodhart I broke my car last year on the launch at pg1, I did run a just getting a feel for it run before that, but it was like a 2.1 or 7 60ft and 3 seconds of shifting 13.25@117 or something.
Pg2 I failed tech for trying to do a battery in the trunk with no shut off switch

Well after I realized hood was hitting I ended up sending the mani back to get a new flange installed to hopefully drop it down a bit. On a side not radiator wouldn't fit either way with the manifold so I decided to put it in passenger wheel / bumper area. Had to cut out the radiator support to make it work and tube it out. Turned out pretty good just got everything mounted back up tonight to make sure all the body lines still looked good. Have to weld on some mounts for a couple things and should be ready to be on track to re assemble soon hopefully.

soooo sick bro. funny how u can see my car under yours. my update is after some troubles with my kingly crank trigger i finally have my motor all put together and new clutch on and trans mated and in its new home.
thanks mark glad you checked this out.
goodhart i made 531 dialed back to 527 @db last year on my 2.4 @30psi. I was under the impression the 3582 was only good for about that as it starts to go way outside the chart.
