Update , I've finished my fuel tank ventilation system .I tried to hide it as best as I could. I ran it from the tank , across the trunk floor , up and across the package tray and down through the floor to a Mazda vapor canister mounted above the 8.8 dif. Unless Andrew finds something wrong with it ! lol . The other day I watched a Jay Leno's Garage segment on youtube. They were taking about the three levels of the Dodge Challenger that were available . He asked if the RedEye had the Hurst Line Loc that the Demon had and it reminded me of the V8 Vega that I built when I was 19 . I had a Line Loc in that machine and it was a hoot , loved it . So guess what I bought ?.

Update , I've installed the Hurst Lineloc , mounted the fan controllers under the rad , built and installed a sub-woofer box along with rear 6x9 speakers , as well as an amp for the sub-woofer. As the car sits now there is 3.75 inches of ground clearance , I'd like to have at least 4.5 inches . This is the first time I've had coilovers on one of my vehicles and I have a few questions. I'm running ridetech coilovers with 400 lb springs that were included in the TCI suspension kit . I'm about 2/3rds into the adjustment range on the shock and it doesn't look like there's much shock travel at this point. I think I'll need to contact ridetech for some input .

I'll be in touch with Ridetech in the new year.
I mounted the air filter in the front drivers side wheel well awhile back. I wanted to add some support to the filter itself as I don't want it falling off and running over it . So I built simple support that sides over the end of the filter and bolts to the back of the headlight mount.
I also built a trans cooler mount that sits inside the passenger side front wheel well. I also need to bend up some new cooler lines. I wasn't happy with the first pair that I bent up .
Happy New Year everyone !

I talked to Matt at Ridetech on Friday and he punched a bunch of numbers into his calculator and he figures that a 500lb spring should do the job. So I placed an order with Summit Racing.
