    Go to www.photobucket.com and get a free account. Not only can you resize pictures there, it will host them so you can post them here.

    I'm wondering how he ran 13 second quarters without a hood that would close. Did he run without the hood? Does he have a time slip?

    Maybe he ran without an air cleaner like alot of racers do.

    As far as resizing pics, Irfanview is the best free software out there for resizing and cropping pics. Do a google for it. It's a pretty small download.

    ok I will download that software later and post it. But I'm not sure how he ran it. But letting the hood up like that does allow for more air. Not sure how that would affect drag on the car though. Who knows.The filter I have right now is a little over 3" in height (the assembly itself) I didn't measure the base of it.

    Here's a buncha pics. You can see the awful job he did. But you can also see how great of a job I did on the carpeting. I also repainted the kick panels and the rest of the plastic. Still need to work on the dash as you can see. I'm also going to upload a pic of the speakers I installed.

    just a couple speakers for now. I still need to get a backseat I've been talking with someone but I bet shipping will kill me. I need them so I guess I'll have to pay.

    hmm I like that scoop too but the problem is I already have the whole cut out in my hood. Thanks for the compliments too guys. I was thinking maybe there would be something I could run to attach the air filter to the carb but would allow me to more the filter. I guess im wrong haha.
