Umm its my brothers car. He's not a forum person. I can make one i guess. Got alot of pics. Talkin to him today he reckons itll only make 1100rwhp. But he said itll defintiely be a 1000hp car. Wont see it making 1000 on one dyno then 900 on the next. He builds rank cars for a living. Did all the work on this up until the guy moved recently http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0d9DTkkOKWo

Yer cause I had to relocate the coolant bottle cause of the manifold cause the intake is to hight its only an xg falcon there isnt as much room in the bay like an ef el but where the pod is there is xb bonnet flutes and it sits right under itImagethat's the bonnet it sits under gets heaps more cold air rather then sitting behind a light
