After 2 Years of abuse for a 50Trim running at 35psi on a stock block with 200,000 miles on it my car finally couldnt take any more.

Let me know if there is anything that you think I should change on there. The car Runs on E85 and is only Driven about 2-7 times a month, Mainly to the Drag Strip. I'm trying to get about 600hp out of the car without Nitrous.

BS is already out of the car.

I knew I should of Taken Pictures.

Car is already in the shop and being rebuilt, makes things alot eaiser when you have a lift work with. Looks like all it was was just a crushed ring, really easy to fix but im doing the whole thing from top to bottom. (Head only has about 600 miles on it).

Its amazing what you can do to a car when you are running E85 Through it.

My goal this year is a low 11 on street tires (No Slicks or Radials), I really dont think it is going to happen but hey im going to try. I did hit a 12.5 last year on a burnt out stock clutch and my old setup (I think our strip is 4800 feet ASL). I do still have to drive my car to the track which is about 55 miles away so it does have to be somewhat "Streetable". My biggest worry about all of this is ending up with a trailer queen when im done.
