The fab work looks very nice, like the shop doing the work could have built it any way you wanted. It's going to be a bad machine regardless, 2015 is going to be a good year for Pontiac performance!
Thanks for the kudos.

As with most projects like this one, they end up evolving over time due to various reasons, in hindsight maybe the subframe should have been replaced.
We’ve got a few more changes to make which will help with maintenance and shed some weight.

The major step in evolution for 2015 is swapping out the entire McCarty top end and stepping up to DCI Motorsports RA-V’s.
