        Great deal Man - just goes to show you that market is everything! Like real estate, location location location.

        Cars like that in chicagoland - for the most part - just aren't that sought after.

        Good for you!

        burn out pics? :D

            That posi is fine for now - just wait to see what it does once you put a 454 in front of it - or maybe a 502?

            you could keep it easy and put in a 383 or 408 or....? ;D

                Great car, especially for the price. New parts alone would cost triple. Have fun with it.

                      Start browsing the Megamanual.com and diyautotune.com. Then pick from what you think you'd like best. DG has a lot of comfort with MS1extra (the extra is the firmware programming) and the EMSpro is based on that. My preferences has been with the MS2 (but I have waaay less diversity in my experience, one MS1extra and one MS2). I will likely upgrade my MS2 firmware to MS2/extra, sometime soon-ish.

                        That looks like an interesting kit. I want to turbo my formula but I think I want to duplicate the turbo fairmont from dragweek.

                          That kit does look interesting.

                          Those pieces add up separately quick if you're buying them new.

                          Not have a tig welder for a project like this means it will look less like jewelry - but - if you have a mig, and a grinder - it can still look damned good!

                          I'm not sure I'd go stainless and brand new for my first try - might go with mild steel and paint or wrap and see how it worked - makes "oops" pieces less painfull?

                          You're a better welder / faber than I am tho - and stainless means you can keep it nice for less work a lot longer....
                          or - you don't have to pay the ceramic coater when you're done if you want to keep it nice.

                            I like that kit and may have to give it another look when I'm ready to turbo the camaro....I'll go the mig route myself and like John said, just wrap the oopsies.
