Traction bars and a loop! All the power is not worth much if you can't put it to the ground in a safe manner! Jim

Ported blower might as well get it out of the way

Thanks for all the input. I think I am gonna go with the traction bars and loop next and after that get the FTVB followd by the Apten porting. Man...once you start, you just can't stop modding...there is always something new out that you just all of a sudden NEED.

Mods

Ok, listen and take it for what it's worth. I'm 48 had my L for going on 4yrs. Retired, spend more time with my L than my wife, raced every week end for over 2yrs (2nd in Summit Super Series at Osceola Dragway 2003) After pulley and chip or reflash, slicks, everything else is a waste of money. Keep your money you'll spend on ported this and that and be happy with 12 sec. full size pick-up. If your 35 or so you'll know just how special and unbelievable that is. Be happy. Take your $10,000 in mods and buy a fox mustang w/ SB stroker or BB and go 9's or low 10's. Think how impresive it would be to pull your 9-10sec Mustang with a 12sec. Lightning. I'm putting my Flame suit on for the members that just can't handle the truth. Until we loss 1000-1500lbs and make our shoe boxs a little more air friendly were bucking the law of physics. Going fast and setting new speed and E.T. records is easy as hell. All it takes is MONEY. Ed
