Re: My 86 build
Hey MK I read your whole build, you have great fab skills I wish I was half as good as you are, I know your paint job is temporary but was thinking you could outline your flames with pin-striping tape in a medium blue or any color you like. It would really stand out better, I hope you don't mind the suggestion. Keep up the great work...Vernski

I think the lq4's are around 325hp?, the earlier ones were like 300hp. either way it's double of what my pos 305 has!
