Your talking about a complete drag car running entirely on alcohol! Thus no need for IC as the aclohol fuel alone is enogh to keep the intake charge temps down. This is not a drive your mother in-law to the airport / swap meet car! That thing is just a monster!

I want to know about the custom tranny for that rear wheel drive thing. It has to be a takeout from another car, or all custom fabbed.
