Hey guys! Well i just finished this up, my first top fuel car, i just did it from the box, except i added some wires, and stuff on the engine. I added the 16 injector lines, made a blower bag, plug wires, fuel lines, throttle linkages, springs, Blower hold down straps, etc.. I wanted it as it was a few years ago, this is not a current drag car build. I am going to redo a few things, and add a few things. I plan to do a few more of these, but more detailed. Thanks for looking and any comments.       |

I had to chuckle Jeryd. You said "I just did it from the box, except I added......." Man you always do a nice job and this one is no exception. All of the details look great on it.

Nice work and I like the "little" details.
the details make the whole thing come together.
What did you use to make those fittings. They look good.
