I made the exhausts ,as you can see they have to go down behind the engine mounts and that was a pain. The plan is not to modify crapi so I can go back to original ,so things had to fit round x member , steering shaft , brake booster ect. I have just got a 3.9 serpentine belt motor (in bits in the background ) and I will do this up and fit it with its efi (I have a meggasquirt ecu )
I have polished the plenum and will swap a few other bits over from the 3.5 . The big advantage of the serp motor is that it came complete with alt ,ps pump ,aircon pump and tensioner ,and all the proper brackets AND its 40mm shorter.
Nick , when I said budget I meant the state of my pic show compared to your full length movie. Now all I gotta do if figure out how to do the rear end. Im thinking 4 link , possibly using the front spring mounts for the front lower link and maybe use modified sway bar mounts somehow for the top links . No doubt I will change my mind about that 10 times before its finished
Sometimes I talk to myself ... and we both have a good laugh
,I cant even spell cimematographer and I wasnt sure how many images I could cram in so I bunched into a few pix .
