Re: two and half year project so far.

Well I was laid off for a couple weeks. So I didn’t do too much just pulled engine and transmission and all bumpers, fenders, suspension and so on off. Don’t know what to do first. The car has been sitting on jack stands for couple months. Just to let you know that was all I have raced. They are not much at all. I know the cars I have races are not much to brag about but hey I have done it so why not share. I honesty don’t know how fast or slow my car is. All I do know is what I have done to it. Oh and that motor is still running 120 to 150 psi on each cylinder. I have only run fifteen psi of boost for four separate pulls. But oh well it will just be a back up motor. I have a question for all of you. Should I do the engine (pistons, rods, cams, port polish, and inj.) and computer (mega squirt), suspension and paint/body or transmission (axles, clutch, flywheel, differential and neon transmission swap) and computer with stock motor?
