The big rear rubber looks good in there! What did you have to do to get that to fit? Paint work is gorgeous!

Thanks for all the positive feedback. Its been a bit of a haul to get it too this stage and I'm sure many of you have been there and done that.

To answer a couple of your q's.
MT S/R 29x15x15
Mini-tubbed - dana 60 shortened 6"
Caltracs and nolathane bushings (better ride)
Custom built KB588 with F1R Procharger (8:1 comp)
FAST EFI
Tune next week - hoping for 1000hp @ 8psi
Comp. TF727 with GV (2400 rpm @ 70mph)
Heaps of work gone into the chassis, interior etc as well.

I can copy/paste full spec. if you want.

I know its not to everyones taste and its a custom build for things I like and I know its crazy to put 1000hp into a vert. without a cage etc etc....but there is something about cruising down the highway with the top down and all those ponies under the hood, and did I mention that awesome HEMI sound!!

Beautiful car!  Looks like it's made of glass!

As if the Hemi alone wasn't enough.  I think this car has earned the title "Insane"!!!  :ylsuper:

Well went pretty good.

Need to change from 600cc injectors to 1000cc as at 90% duty.

Need to change SC pulley to smaller as only getting 6.8psi instead of 10-12psi.

At 3psi the water/meth injection immediately lowered the IAT by 80F 

Still managed 1049hp and 994 ft/lbs TQ though.

Man that is insane! Is that 1050 horses on a chasis dyno? I would love to see more pics of the stiffening you did and just general progress pics if you have them. Congrats on a wicked machine.
