In the old fox body I've been looking at kmembers with some front coil overs. I'm going to out different rear gears in it as well sometime soon.

wider wheels and tires for sure...then a uca/lca's. Those 3.73's rock with the auto but need the tires for sure.

I will pull the plugs soon and take a look.

Funny thing other than smoke, You can't really tell. It still drives normal, no sounds of any kind and no check engine light. It dumped half a quart of oil through the breather though.
Same thing mine did. Mine doesn't even smoke. Just a ton of crankcase pressure. Compression is down on 3 cyl. I was looking at the MMR 1000 build as well but I am nervous about using them.

If you call on the corral.net there are a bunch of guys that tell horror stories about them.

JPC Racing does a good job with the Diablosport stuff. Call and talk to Justin and tell him Brent Yager sent you

Some kind of FI. I have been trying to decide on building the block first or just going FI. But today I decided after taxes that I will be going for FI. Now I just need to decide on what type.

Y'all think 10" wide wheels on the front will stick out bad, or if at all?
Ended up getting a set of brand new '14 California Special wheels/tires. They look great! - even though they aren't very performance oriented.

I've got a used pair of FRPP / Boss 302S lower control arm relocation brackets and a new pair of CHE LCAs to put on this week. I'll see if I can get it to hook any harder with a fresh pair of 20" DRs and shoot for an untuned 11.x pass. I doubt it will happen but we'll see, lol.

With good weather and a hook I think it is possible and would be a great achievement IMO.
