Well it has been slow lately but I have managed to gat a good start on preping 
my tiger for drag racing. To date I have installed the engine and c4 tranny as 
well as the fuel system. The stock motor mounts were in the way so I decided to 
use a motor plate based on information from Jerry (thanks). 

The Engine
347 stroker 10.7:1
brodix track 1 heads shaved to 64cc and 2.02 valves
1.72 roller rockers
.565 int and .574 exh 282 duration 112 lobes on cam
vic jr intake ported and milled to match heads
gary williams 750 double pumper
romac balancer (28 oz)
electric water pump (no accessories)
crappy headers

The Tranny
PA performance SFI scatter shield
SFI CSI flex plate
PA performance reverse valve boby/ servo/ hardened input shaft/ 5 clutch high 
drum
B&M cooler
B&M pro ratchet shifter
Autolite temp gage
kevlar bands
3800 rpm BTE nitrous converter

Rear End
46" ford nodular 9"
3.50 gear
spool
strange axles

Tires will be 26x10" M/T slicks when i figure out how i want to make them fit. 

Fuel system is a holley volumax 250 GPH pump and an aluminum 5 gal fuel cell. 
with dual 10 an lines from the cell to the pump and one 8 an line to the 
regulator. there will be two 6 an lines feeding the carb. 

everything that is not necessary do drive the 1/4 mile is stripped off. i have 
a fiberglass hard top that is getting the lexan installed and the windshield/ 
windows will be lexan. All of the guts from the doors is removed. 

well i hope you enjoy the pictures.

P.S. the roll cage is under construction.
