After 8 months of searching I finally managed to score a set of the PIAA 1252s on ebay. These are the last lights I need and go in the small holes in the lower bumper. ![http://img829.imageshack.us/img829/6456/25760168237f956f91eo.jpg](http://img829.imageshack.us/img829/6456/25760168237f956f91eo.jpg) ---

Dave, any particular reason you dont want boost on this car? Do you just think its better n/a or dont like it on that particular car for some other reason? ---

yea I dont think this car would be fun with a shit ton of power. I didnt build the car to be a rocketship or to go out and race, Ive been there and done that I guess. I have to put some money into suspension before I think about putting more power in it. Its a 42 year old car, with manual steering and manual brakes its not a car you wanna gettin ssssideways in all over the place in. I wanna build a healthy stroker motor with 4 or 500 hp N/a and it’ll have plenty of power for whatever and be fun to drive. ---

500 is hefty tho, you could easily go sideways with that much with minimal effort 🙂 ---
