lol, I bought those before the build. 

 

 

Jim, I just got the ballast kit.  That is the smartest ballast I have every seen.

I raced with my car for the first time at Poconos.  Few issues with the car.  The good news is I was able to meet Brandon from this website.  Cool guy. 

 

Picture of the engine.

Very nice and clean looking.  Quick question, it is OK to remove the heater core now?  The pic of the engine bay looks like the heater  core is removed.  Please note that I am not questioning this build, rather, just trying to stay current with the rules.

 

TIA

Wait, I did not remove anything on the car.  I bought it that way, and I was told you can have a by pass.  The cut off pipes are still there.  When installing switches on my center dash I noticed that big box (heater core?) behind the center console, which makes me think everything is there.   More, I had the car reviewed during the inspection this past weekend and the Tech guy looked at that and approved the car.   What am I missing?

 

I even asked this question at the racetrack last weekend when I noticed other guys having the heater pipes installed.
