How many of you guys remember the "Zingers" on the early 70's car show circuit? That is what came to mind on this first trial fit.

Awesome RJ,
 I'm all for the new generation engines in nostalgic chassis. That Ford looks huge!

That is pretty cool I like it those things can handle some boost going to run on meth or gas.

It looks seriously awesome. That's a tall powerhouse, a periscope may help seeing the track!

Can't wait to hear it and see it in action.
