Hey guys, just wanted to say hi and say this seems like a great site. I am from Toledo, OH and just moved to Beaver, PA. I transferred to work in Pittsburgh.
I have '91 LX that is my money pit. It has a 427" stroker that makes 520hp NA and is in the process of having a custom 88mm turbo installed.
Its has Baer brakes, TKO600 (MMR900) and full cage/full suspension with mini-tubs/9" rear from Team Z Motorsports (who will also be doing the turbo kit). The car will have FAST tuned by Lidio at Alternative Auto and will be finished by the end of August for NMRA Columbus. I am building it to run True Street style events and it will be driven on a limited basis on the street.
I also just bought a '97 Taurus SHO (with only 9400 original miles) as my DD.
Anyway, good to be here. Any input on the local cruise spots, events, races appreciated.
-J

Thanks for the welcomes guys. I don't have any of the most recent pics, but I show a few of what I got:
Old pic:

Pic from when it was NA. I only got the track a few times like this, but the best was 11.47@125.5 with tune and 2nd gear issues in the old TKO. It had the mph for 10.70s I'd guess. The car will look pretty much like this when its done, only changes will be 18s with more rubber tucked more:

Here's some build pics. It now has the drivetrain installed and sits on the track Bogarts---looks MEAN with the 325 MT DRs tucked under the mini-tub rear. Turbo system and FAST wiring being completed now. Rear has a stock style tank (Glenn's Perf.) and nice tin work making the rear completely flat. Tune scheduled with Lidio mid-August.

Thanks man, unfortunately the Cobras are no longer with me. I traded the '01 in on the '04 and sold the '04 with only 7400 miles before I moved to Chicago last year :(
