a shade under 500 i'm trying for closer to 600 when it starts up again (new 1200cc injectors.....2 new fuel pumps....and a couple other engine bits)....o and i have a NOS system too....but that hasnt been plumbed in yet.....so if i dont get 600 on the mods alone......i'll add the gas (i'm going to add the gas anyway )

since the body is basically pretty crap....engine has torn sections of the welding already (all the twisting and stuffs)....but its plenty fun

it also seems to have this habit of breaking things lately, which is most annoying since it does that just when you really get going (o, and it uses WAY too much fuel in the process)
