Is that $298 for the pair?

Maybe. I'd need to figure out the suspension and maybe get a transbrake. A guy on the LS Swapped Mopars Facebook page just posted about his 4 inch exhaust hidden in custom recessed floorpans, that might be the way to do it.

Yeah, that's the thing, in order to be even remotely competitive in my area, I'd need to weigh like 2700lbs and make like 1200hp. I've had gutted tin can cars before, and while they're fun, as I get older a soft and quiet car that's still decently quick is more and more appealing. I think...

Yeah, all the rear suspension actually needs is a set of monoleafs and some decent shocks. The difficulty with the full length exhaust is that there is like no room between the giant bellhousing and the torsion bars in front. I have to do some goofy fab work and make some oval pipes or...

So I'm not sure what I want to do with this car. The last year or two I've been working long hours and just feeling burned out on the hot rodding thing. Let it mostly sit in storage for the time. Recently moved to a more office-y job and am considering getting back to work on the hoopty...

It's the Mopar curse, if you had slammed a trash cam only 6.0 LS in that thing you'd have hundreds of passes on it by now! :poke:

So I was lazy and left e85 in the tank since October and I think I clogged an injector. Also, this thing needs a battery! I think some 250lb injectors are next on the list to get this thing running 100% and future-proof the fuel system. I need to build a barn too, my garage is packed full of...

Dude, what a sweet project! I was gonna suggest a bolt or dzus in tunnel but then kept reading and you beat me to it. Seeing how tight that motor fits in there confirms that I indeed wussed out and hit the easy button with my LS Dart. Can't wait to see this thing slaying some tires!

Yeah if only it wasn't 16° out right now.

Dang, I'm jealous of your weather! We still have an inch of snow on the ground, and none of our tracks open til like April. Good luck this weekend!

Dude, your project is inspirational! I need to get my butt back in gear. Can't wait to see your make some more hits!

Small update - working on the 2 step control wiring. Also making whooshy noises. :)

Ahahaha I asked a guy on fb how to adjust them!

Man, it's been over a year since I've updated this? I've actually made some progress! So far: New bigger fuel cell Twin 450s in the cell Flex sensor install Billet RPS fuel filter MSD 2 step halfway hacked in BOV so I can stop blowing couplers off Rear ARB and traction bars I still have...

Glad to see you got this thing on the road man! Not gonna be long before you're making killer hits!

Lol, took a few minutes to get over my heart attack. Parts should be here in the next day or two. FedEx says they delivered them yesterday, but they're nowhere to be found. Hoping they turn up Monday so I can floor this thing without dying. :)

Well, I got it back together and it doesn't blow cold pipes off for the moment, instead it just blows the tires off! I was on my way home last night, rolled into it at 30mph and hazed the 275 pro's once it built boost. So I was like "OK, maybe I'll try a hit from 50, so I can get some data...

Lol, yeah, that kinda sucked, but it is what it is. Got it all put back together last night, went and made a hit to test it out and blew off another. Oh well, Dave's Terrible Turbo Fab strikes again, lol.

How's it goin down there Freek? That thing makin' noise yet?

Still just driving this junk. My daughter loves it though and always requests to go for a ride in daddy's "Blue Zoom" and go fast. Turned it up to 11 psi and boy is it rowdy, but I blew an intercooler pipe off and immediately ran it over, so it's down for the moment for some repair. Have a...

Heck, you're makin' pretty good progress, my minitub job took me two years to finish! :) Looks great!

Nothing especially noteworthy. I've been dailying it on nice days, runs really good for the amount of tuning knowledge I have, lol. Just put a nice converter in it and this thing really rips now on only 5 lbs. Makes boost prettymuch instantly and spins the street tires hard.

Bummer! Oh well, soon enough.

Well, did you make it to that show today?

Well I finally have this hoopty on the road! Still working on the tuneup, but it runs pretty good. I'm reasonably sure I don't have enough fuel pump to make any real power yet, so I have a 5 psi spring in the gate. Feels nice and strong on 5 psi though! Just got back from a beer run, this junk...

I've been slowly picking away at this project on my lunch breaks, and it's almost ready to get tuned! Just a few odds and ends left to finish up. It's nice to not have to pump the carb a couple times to get it to cold start. :D

Lol, it's been a year since my last update, but I've made some substantial progress. Engine is in and has made noise, turbo kit is done, trans is in, driveshaft is in. Just some odds and ends left, then I can start tuning then driving this junk! :)

Also, I think it's funny that I got more flak for that choice than my engine choice! :rofl:

Lol, my family was a red family for a long time, but I've always dreamed of a two cylinder Deere to play in the backyard with. I love how they sound! :)

Lol, in response to what? The budget distraction?
