never dyno'd the car on the bottle.. hell, that was only the 3rd pass after it had been freshened up and a new cam put in place.. The car probably had 8.50 potential in it.
figure it was probably putting out just under 1000hp on the bottle so figure probably a little under 900 to the wheels.

Chasis work was pretty simple:
8pt cage
anti-roll bar
coil overs up front w/limiters
adj. uppers in the rear w/ chassis engineering lowers and 50/50s.
tubular k member

Nothing really special, and it all had to fit in the stock locations to run the stock suspension class..

Wow. I'm really sorry to hear this. You can always replace a car, can't replace a life.......
