Looks great Kyle! Chugging along...what are your plans for the interior?

[kyletime666]

Two sparco seats, full carpet, back seats gone and all my electronics are in its place. Stock dash for now with digital dash in the stock location. Stock door cards.

Mad props man, mad props! This thing is gonna be immaculate by the time you're done.

i had a slight freak out saturday morning and wasnt happy the direction i was taking.....so i dismantled the whole front end again and started over on the engine bay. In the 16 hours i put in this weekend i am 1000% happier with the results so far. it will be on the next level where i felt i was rushing and slacking before.

Very cool! 

It is hard to pause, reevaluate, go backwards and keep moving forward.  Props!

I'm definitely in for more info on that engine and your current thought process!

[kyletime666]

Thanks a lot man. Not much new with the engine at this point. 400 cubic inch big block with a decent build. Gonna run it that way for now. Really focusing on the chassis right now. I had one guy initially do the cage and frame and did a really shitty job. My friend chris Taylor took a look at it and has some wild ideas so I'm going forward with him. In the end I ultimately want it to be a very streetable race car. Depending how well the car reacts, next winter could see a more serious engine build and ALOT more power

Awesome!  I'm excited to see the rear-end mounted up.  Are you thinking of tubing out the rear to fit some huge 300mm+ tires or flare out the fenders and go widetrack and stay with the Pontiac theme?

Twin turbo big block!

It is going to be beyond tubbed. No flaires though. We just built a motor similar to this and it made 800+ on the dyno all motor. Kinda wanna keep it n/a.

When are you working on this next?  I would be honored to see this in person or help out if you need someone to hold the flashlight.

[kyletime666]

I'll be at the shop tonight for a bit starting to fit the motor in the frame.

Damn!  It's wife night for the next couple of days.  I'll get the permission slip signed on the 1st.  I'm game for any day after that!

Post Pics!!  At least on instagram

[kyletime666]

No worries. I'll be there a lot in the next few weeks. I forgot to shoot any pics. I'll post some tomorrow.

[DrLeadFoot]

I stopped by Kyle's garage the other day.  All I have to say is this is going to be an epic, tire roasting, 'merica power'd kraut rocket.  I snapped some pics.

[Bassboy3313]

It is definitely a site to see in person, isnt it?!? I get blown away everytime I see it in person. Keep up the great work Kyle!
