:bigtup: Good work on the body of the car, looks like everything is nice a clean now and it always feel great to have fresh paint on a car. Also would love to see this car at a track. Looks like a fun toy to have.

being on cop look out sucksssss. my s10 is straight pipes from the headers into shorty cherry bomb glass packs, with no turn downs. Magic under power, but so loud at 35mph, that you are sweating more than ricky bobby with cereal under the car.

you gona make room for the drive side and tuck it up. You can notch the seat brace and gain 1inch and out it right there off the header. Figure out what torque arm and DS loop your gona run, and you can do both mods to work nicely together. or cut the rear floor humps out, ther tons of room there.

Your gona add about 200# in safety stuff, and the stronger suspension parts over the stock stuff you have now.

Yea I know

Weight coming out - Seats, Rear window, Kmember/a arms, other suspension crap in moly, wheel tires. maybe rear end if I go MWC/spool. th350.

Weight going in - cage, harnesses, DS loop

Not sure what the plan is now I want to try and get on the cam only list at the same time im working towards a turbo build and going from one to the other requires different gear/stall

Good luck finding one for a reasonable price. They seem to sell within hours of being posted on tech for stupid amounts of money because people are having trouble fitting the 102/102 setups without modifying a bunch of shit.
