Nice bro. I will be starting my MGT build up this winter. Those parts are getting harder to come by. Still don't understand why the MGT lost so much aftermarket support. I am searching around for a hardcore racing chassis for my MGT build. That 8.0 is lookin sweet.:D
 
Right on thanks Hulk..
Here's what I did to the shocks..
Got some factory team alum shock caps n bottoms, gold X-firm springs, RPM shock guards..
