    Drip rails don't bother me. Maybe when I get all my sons through college, I'll really go wild on rebuilding my brick. For now... I'm more concerned with go rather than show. ;-)

    Good start, and GOOD LUCK!

    Thanks! I meant to order a personalized plate with "1badc10" on it, but slipped my brain, and paid the registration on the existing plate dad received in '86. Guess I really couldn't part with the plate since it is 22 years old.

    Just a little update nothing that big.

    Ordered
    S&P headers
    motor mount inserts
    Sent off the the harness for reworking and ecu for reprograming.

    This past sunday I got to a whole bunch of little things that needed to get done. I sorted through the current wire harness. I also mocked up the trans support. Installed the new brackets for the motor mounts.

    The mount inserts and the headers arrived yesterday, so this baby should be going in this weekend.

    I was wondering though Is AN-8 sufficiant for the fuel feed line?

    That is more than sufficient. Stock hose is on a -6.
