started getting the turbo mounted, took the fox kit headers, modified those to the ls spacing on the heads (really close) flipped them around and went to town. I had to remove the AC compressor to fit it, but who needs that in a track car anyway? laid everything in the engine bay to check fitment. -

I'm pretty sure I can make it work. The Tricky part was figuring out what I could assemble before paint and keep it sturdy -

If I have too, I will.. But I don't want half the wheel well Un occupied either. I think I have an idea I want to try tonight -

I messed with it a while, got it close. But it's so fiddley the way they made the rear in that kit it's very hard to mock up. Taking the night off and I'll come back at it tomorrow. I need to think of how to beef it up so it stays together over time -

more shaping on the rear diffuser I was at Drugmart and spotted a 99 cobra kit for pretty cheap.. picked it up thinking what the heck, lets see how that IRS mounts up.. So I "could" make this work pretty easy, however its a bit more work than I anticipated. The track width is a little wider than I was hoping. The easy thing to do would be change the wheels, but that is not an option to me. I could narrow the mounting point on the wheel and the axle, but im worried about where the rear arms need to mount.. I'll stare at it a bit and decide if its worth it. -

worked on a rear diffuser for a bit this morning, need to add the veins still, but I think this should work. -
This is awesome! Did you say where the wheels and tires came from?

Thanks, I think the colors I have in mind will really tie it together too. -

Search Pegasus 1198 They are the wide chrome d's, the plastic part just pops out. I was kind of thinking of a IRS swap, but I kinda want to get this done before the NNL in Toledo so I gotta eventually stop somewhere. Ha
