Yeah, the car is fairly well setup. I bought it as such a shell that most of the parts have been replaced by me. I put a 3 point seatbelt in for the driver. It would be pretty close to passing a thorough NHRA tech. The battery hold down isn't per say correct, but its not going anywhere. I need to put in a bracket for my little fire extinguisher.

Its got a safety loop, subframe connectors, all the fuel or transmission soft lines are NHRA approved stuff. It is still C clips, but it has rear discs so that's kinda poor mans safety device in back.

When I said "upgrades in the safety dept" I mostly meant things to keep the car safe. Like a rev limiter.

Its got a really nice converter in it, but the th400 itself was bought used off here. Supposed to be built, but you know how that goes. So I don't fully trust the trans itself.
