Booba, I know you have the trans thing down fer sure. I need to learn it too, and I'll have backup help but not much shop time so... yeah kinda a joke but hey no kidding thx. I have read the "easy" way. What you should do is come grab this whole rolled over 40th GTP coupe body after I snatch eng trans comp, etc. Not sure I want the 40th spoiler. Interior is nice. I could chop off rockers n towers before I junk, too. OR, I also have a complete runs / limps LF wrecked 99 GT coupe if you are into that, clean title. Just sayin, they are both fairly clean rust-wise. But after saturday the 02 won't be a run/driver anymore.
SD, I believe you. I am reading up on boost, CC mag just spanked 1,322 TQ with a cast stock 454 bottom at around 29 psi and didn't break it. Roots-blown 455? mmm. Turbo MMM
NavyBlue- any old car panel will do. Clean paint off two scraps and practice. You'll be able to butt-weld in a half hour, I'd bet. You need a good helmet and a steady hand, I can A any Qs about that stuff its my bread n butter, man. Glad to coach if needed. Bill was gonna do his... There needs to be a body repair section here, like maybe one for crashes and one for rustys.
Cap'n if you ain't breaking stuff you ain't beating on it very hard, now are ye? Glad the cop was cool and you prolly have a simple fix there. Flog on, lead foot.
