    Menacing is the right word for the stance and look. Plus you have the turbos to back that up!

    One of the first things i did to my car is blackout the mirrors. It lets them blend into the car. I would recommend you look into it, just get the blue wrapped on the mirror. It would kind of flow with the hood.

      @Sak-zo1ui 3 роки тому +1

      @@RTLife get a shop or do it yourself. Take black wrap and wrap the mirror where there is body color. If you look at your mirrors they are blue. You want to eliminate that to make them blend in with your windows. You are not tinting the mirror itself but blacking out the housing if that makes sense.

  • @tyronejackson3331
    @tyronejackson3331 3 роки тому +2

    RT LIFE take that 8HP70 transmission out and try the 8HP95 that comes in the Trackhawk cause you're at a point now where you are making way too much power for that stock transmission to handle. The stock transmission can only hold up to about 500 hp that is why you're feeling it seems to slip.Im not quite sure how much horsepower the 8HP95 transmission can handle but it is able to handle way more than the 8HP70. Now you may have known this stuff already but I just wanted to give you some insight on this as an option that may be helpful. Great build keep doing your thing with big blue.

    • @RTLife

      If you're lowered, make sure you cut the fenders or go back to stock ride height. The flares added to the 392/hellcat body style looks great. You're going to like the wider more aggressive stance.

    I ended up doing the vicrez kit and have been so happy about it. The only thing I need to finish it now are the wheels and tires. I know you have the regular wide body wheels but from my understanding you are RWD so your stock offset is around +15-25. If I am AWD and my offset on my wheels are +55, would a +15 wheel work in my case and fill up the wheel well?

    As far as the transmission, doing the Hellcat swap, make sure you get the driveshaft too. If I remember right, the Hellcat tranny is longer and you will need a shorter driveshaft.
