looks nice and tidy. mags, tinted windows and lowered a bit more and would be a tidy street car.

yes i have fallen down into the pit a few times. it has a 2 litre donk in it. a garrett turbokit, drawing through a 600 holley. hence the air cleaner through the bonnet. i put a to4 onto it a few years ago. c4 auto. 3.9:1 welded diff. used to drag it. now i have plans to put efi on a spare 2L, and use it for a street burner. i have another one at my parent's place that i will strip and put all the drag gear in. also got a celica 5spd to go in.

only ever raced it on an 1/8 mile with the bigger turbo and auto. used to do mid 11's. also used to spin the wheels to 1/2 track ! it still needs a lot of sorting out. the converter is a little small. yes,i love my pit. it is the bomb.

i probably should elaborate. i used the throttle butterflies out of a falcon weber. i then made an adaptor to go to a rubber elbow. ( i shonked up this elbow to see if this would work. hence the welding wire ! ) then an impco 200 mixer.
