This thing is gonna be all business!

now all i need to do is to get something accomplished on it. the motor is setting in the shed waiting to be put in but i need to finish the front suspension first and to do that i am waiting on my bushing to get back forom the machinist and i need to find 2 96-97 spindles.

then figure out the wiring nightmare trying to run a Crane HI-6S which piggybacks the duraspark, but im removing all extra wires so it gets confusing.

then get the brakes for all around

Get the TCI shifter from my friend cause the exhaust will not allow the tree shift

modify the fox body pipes to fit, weld on some mufflers and turn downs.

and this is all before i start to build the rear suspension.

Question: What kinda trans you going to use, and gears?

[DuceAnAHalf]

im staying with the regular AOD for now when i bomb that i might have one of our other AODs built or go to a C4.

as for gears im running a 3.55 trac-lok

Why not run the stock gas tank?

[DuceAnAHalf]

Removing the stock tank will allow me more room for the Watts-link and coil-overs.

and because id prefer to not suck up garbage out of a 20 year old tank and push it through my filter, pump and regulator.

[DuceAnAHalf]

so i dropped the tank today and it looks to be a replacement tank and to my suprise it has about 17 gallons of gas in it. which gives me some problems
1. i have nothing to store that much gas in because
2. it has been setting for 3 years so it is most likely only good for the lawn mower, i wont put it in my 97.

so now i have 17 gallons of 3+years old gas and nothing to do with it. anyone in the Tampa area want some gas or a new fuel tank?

maybe i will go to Wal-Mart(sic) and buy some of those 5-gal gas cans and just use the gas for the lawn mower.

I wouldn't run that shit through my lawnmower. Call around, there are recycling centers that take gasoline.
