Welcome to TOR
Great looking rig. Do you do all the work yourself? What's next for it?

Thanks everyone, the entire build has been in my garage.
All 1.75" x .120 4130 chromoly tube mandrel bend in a JD2 manual bender. I have a lot of gusset tubes to add to the main cage to pass tech inspection for SCORE then, planning on the first race being the Terribles Town Primm 300 race just outside of vegas later this year. Keeping my fingers crossed!
For only being 23 I am pretty happy with how it has turned out. I just wish they were not so damn expensive .
I'm still having a little cooling issue. The radiator is a PWR W/ dual SPAL fans rated for over 800hp in a SBC. All -16 stainless lines and fittings. I have a Meziere remote water pump (pumps 55 GPM). I think it may be just a simple air bubble in the block or in the non existent heater core loop. I'll be figuring more of that out in a few days.
