Panlelfantastic, ya smart*ss
Your panel is BAD. What kind of power is that GM motor putting out?By the way, it isnt a real oval so it took alot of the guilt away. I got it as an ex drag car with no rear clip. Dont ever try to weld in a oval dash into a square window car...... royal PITA (top lines up fine, bottom not so good )

Thanks! You are well on your way also... My stock Eco puts out 170hp at the crank. Plans call for 350hp next year. No guilt. It is your car and you can improve it any way you see fit.

Man , that car is going to be SICK when it's done . I am totally hyped on this car . You say its not a true oval - what year is it actually ? Also , What are you planning to put in it to make it go ? Definately keep us up to date on this project . I have to say I like the ovals the best for the bugs . Axl .

Not to be rude or anything , but isn't using a different program not considered stock anymore ? But I can go with the 350 HP figure , as GM has designed the Ecotec to handle upwards of 750 HP . The bottom end design came from the latest Corvette engine . Axl .
