Dart 406 little m block, Canfield 215 heads, hydraulic roller cam, Th400, Ford 9", twin Garrett GT35R turbochargers. Street driven virtually every weekend and driven very hard at track, this is no show car but do like to keep her looking good.
Love the Lateral G site and got inspiration from the Mule, Cheers Mark Manchester - England

Love the stance, looks like it's ready to snatch the fronts right off the ground. Very cool car!

What rear suspension are you running?

Cheers for complements, Rear end: Pro ladder bar with slider type dual panhard. Only part of the original car that needed cutting apart from mini-tub was the rear floor to enable correct stance/geometry, ladders sit in channels under rear seat. Car picks up front wheels on launch, and drives the entire track nose up.
