Default '92 Coupe EFI 427W project.

Bought this car last August and have been dumping money in to it ever since. It is a '92 coupe that was originally a 4 cylinder. I bought it through a member here and it has a h/c/i 302 in it. I have since added the following
  • Eibach drag launch springs with airbag
  • Strange 10 way struts/shocks
  • Maximum motorsports full length subframes
  • Maximum motorsports strut tower brace
  • Welded torque boxes
  • '95 8.8 with 5 lug discs, 3.73 gears, 31 spline axles
  • Powerslot 5 lug front rotors
  • 15x3.5 and 15x8 Prostars with skinies and 275/50x15s
  • Aluminum Driveshaft
  • Pro3i upper/lower control arms
  • Glenns performance 950hp fuel system with street sleeper sumped tank, 2xWalbro 255lph inlines, Aeroquip fuel lines, Aeromotive fuel pressure regulator, UPR fuel rails.
  • Kaenen 3" hood
In the worksI have purchased everything already and Rick at RNH is currently working on the longblock assembly. I am having some anxiety over the eBay Procomp heads. I purchased them as a low cost option because I just wanted to see if they would meet my needs. If not, I would dump them and pay for something else. Then I heard Greg at XSR had some experience and good results porting them, so I have far more money in them than I probably should. Chad of newwebsite did my fuel system and will be doing the engine install as well. I currently have a stock T5 which will be replaced with another manual transmission early next year or whenever it grenades. Not sure if it will be a TKO or a T56 yet.

This will be a street car that sees the track a couple of times per year. Should be 450+ at the wheels. Nitrous is on the distant horizon, possibly late next year.
