Well lets see if this worked.
Haven't been on here lately but here's a little update on what the car is running now.
Had the heads ported a new cam and carb.
Two weeks ago at our bracket division finals I finally got my first 8 second pass. It went 8.9995@149.05 nice and cool in the morning. It ran 9.02-9.05 three consecutive days.
It's been a struggle this year but it finally paid off.

You might want to go out to PhotoBucket and get a free account. You can upload the pix there and then link to them here with the Img option...

Well guys I need a little help with the pics. I've got them on photobucket but can't get them here. Obviously I'm doing something wrong. Can someone guide me through the steps?

Thanks Mike
