off topic, but what made you decide to go powerglide? a while back when you were asking about going to auto i said to put a glide in the car and you or someone else had said it wouldnt work well and a c4 would be a better option…

that fox is hooking, im curious whats done to the suspension

Fox bodys are like F-bodys it doesn’t take that much work to make them hook especially when you’re running a big stall and a decent size tire.
