Therein lies the problem, CompClassic, reverse what Dragon Snake items? As originally delivered, CSX2416 had none of them to begin with. Save for the Stage III motor, all the options Brent received fall into the "Convenience" category. The high output motor? Who wouldn't have loved to cruise up and down Main Street on a warm Saturday night to show off those Webers? FYI, when jetted for the street, they're rock solid, if a little thirsty. I've regularly driven my Dragonsnake that way.
Options on CSX2416, as originally delivered:
Front grille and rear bumper guards
Wind wings
Sun visors
Heater
Radio and antenna
sway bars
polished mag wheels
Items Frye would have had to ask SAI to remove had it been a Dragon Snake, to make the car streetable (and street legal because of the racing slicks):
Competition pressure plate
Competition clutch disc
4.89:1 Differential gear ratio
Halibrand pin drive magnesium wheels
Racing slicks
Competition front and rear springs
50/50 lock-down shock absorbers
90/10 up-lock shock absorbers
The scattershield and dash-mounted Sun tachometer that were Dragon Snake specific not only could have stayed, but should have.
