Damn, with all this hoopla over that bat, Gabe u are going to have to change her name to the 'Blackbat' instead of 'Blackbird';)

That bat does give a touch of evil. I like it.

Haha, actually she's now more representative of the Blackbird (SR-71) with a super low radar (in this case sonar) signature/profile :)

I would *hate* to see your car in my rearview mirror.....;)

Nice rear view shot!

Gabe,
I remember seeing a pic of your "virgin" bat that has not been on the road yet. I could not find it again. Can you show both before and after pics of the bat? I showed a pic of the bat (and your Blackbird) to my teenage daughter. She thought "cool"! :cool:

Before:

Mike - Glad you and your daughter dig it :) some are creeped out by it, but everyone thinks its unique to say the least :)

Gabe:

Very nice.

Is that a Turbo Mike engine? I know he uses the F.A.S.T and twin MSD 7's. I built a few controllers for him.

John, it sure is a Turbo Mike motor :) we've got a nasty lean spot at 5k that we're upgrading to MOTEC to fix. This motor is freaking mental though...

Gabe, Motec alone will not fix your lean spot but good tuning will. I don't know anything about FAST EMS but I am sure you can work it out.

Lincoln, you're 100% right on that - we're doing a full retune along with some other bells and whistles as the FAST maps are 8x8 which is okay but we want to go to a higher level of detail to run the motor.

:) We'll have the progress listed here when we start.

So I just saw pics of this in K3 bodywork, very nice. But is there a thread on the transition from 1976 era bodywork to the full-blown K3?

Nevermind, I found it.:cool:

Nice pic...do I see the legs of a State Trooper with that pulled-over maroon car?
Crazy subliminal message there...
