nice third gen, clean, and nice motor

nice sig :weak:

nice project.how much did the motor and tranny set you back?

Nice car.

I sometimes miss my 85 irocZ

the tranny i got a JJ’s for about $1200, then i bought the engine block off a friend and tore it down and built it back up haha. That put me in the hole a bit lol. Overall the whole car wasn’t cheap to build considering you pretty much have to change out the entire drive train to support the hp of the new motor, but i think its well worth it. Its something different, something I like, and it should be fun when its all finished.

when will it be finished?

exhaust with longtubes will be the fun part…i’m looking at my car and thinking of how i’m gonna do mine. i hear its harder with T56 crossmembers. i’m considering notching my subframe to allow 3inch pipes to clear. i’ll box in the frame as best i can with subframe connectors and such.

That’s great!! How about you post updates on your own project thread! :blanyer: :booty:

I still havent looked into running the true dual 3" since the last time I talked to you. I’ll have see what im doing when i go to get my exhaust work done which is still a few weeks away.

That’s great!! How about you post updates on your own project thread

the whole reason i mention it asshat is because it will HELP him since he is doing a SIMILAR thing to the SAME type of car as i am. I am relating my ideas which can help guide him to make his own solution to the problem. how bout you stay out of threads that dont pertain to you in anyway

anyway, yeah you’ll have to look at how much room you have under there

even if you dont run a dual system, making a ypipe to clear with longtubes is still a challenge. I see frame notching a great option if you can get it all braced up to support the extra stresses. But it all depends on how much clearance you have on the road. i know i have little with the prokit

or you could not cry like a little girl when someone tells a joke

I still have that y-pipe ben from those headers you got from me. You could see if they would work, and if they didn’t, you could just give them back to me.

Just firing back thats all :wackit:
