Are real, working headlights required for the class you're running? I can make you some fiberglass panels to bolt into place, then you can just put some fake headlight decal overtop of it. Would save you some weight for sure.

Working headlights, taillights, wipers, horn are all required for the class...

But i like the idea of a fiberglass replacement ...may be even a velocity stack weaved into the fiberglass head light would also be nice.

Fiberglass with a hole for a small 9006 bulb with universal pigtail hooked up to the stock wiring would classify as a working headlight and tailight

That's an awesome project you have there man!!! Hope you reach your goal of 700hp and breaking into the 9s.

This thread's been going for a year and a half... and if I remember correctly we originally all got our hopes up for it hitting the dyno like last summer . So no use getting anxious, it could still be a while.

I didn't mean to be nagative - I understand it takes a long time, delays happen, plans change, etc. I just meant it's been an ongoing build and there's no telling how soon it really will get on the dyno. Good luck though!

 

[DSM-ZERO]

No its cool something will happen very soon

[DSM-ZERO]

yea Kevin is a friend of mine and he has one bad ass SRT-4

ok the problem with the car now is that there is some communication problem between the ecu and the alternator . the alternator dose not want to turn on and charge the battery...just another bug to work out

 

[Jungy]

I'm sure you probably already have this covered but you need to run an external voltage regulator like one from an old turbo dodge. Here's the info on how to wire it up, its on page 15: http://www.electromotive.us/pdf_files/neon99.pdf .

 

[DSM-ZERO]

yup just got the stuff today VR-125 for the voltage regulator
