The build thread is on Bangshift. Lurkers welcome if you don't want to sign up.

He drives it pretty gently for what it is. No burnouts, etc. It MIGHT get a little LSR use at some point but mostly he wants to hold it and love it gently. Besides, with this HP the tires are the "fuse" - they'll just go up in smoke before anything serious breaks. We are doing an SFI flywheel and scattershield in case the tires put up less of a fight than we anticipate and the RPMs climb too high. The trans is a World Class T5 and I think the rear is stock. If we have difficulty we'll switch to a TKO or similar and (I'm thinking) a Ford 8.8 - tough diff and not too pricey. The wagon is wide enough that I think we can get a rear with appropriate width at PnP.
