ROFL!

 

If you don't soon make up your mind, your never going to see this car again, haha!!

 

good luck.

 

sounds cool, cant wait to see it in action

 

good luck with this it's a big job I've seen a few Volkswagen guys doing it and have thought of doing it to my dub as well.

just a tip though you might want to look into an 89 conquest Independant suspension rearend. it will probably fit better and have plenty of beef for your kind of numbers

 

Ah I see you are an expert in the field of sarcazim too! LOL! Good luck bro keep us posted this thing should be awesome!

 

Me, sarcastic???? Why would you say that???
I will keep everyone up to date on the progress.

 

i'm going to have an anxiety attack waiting for pics WTF. if my Cobalt was RWD i wouldn't be selling it. good luck with it man!

 

I know a shop that can fix that small problem for you.

 

your car will be amazing.

the engine being on a 90* angle will be trippy!

 

back in the days when my credit card balances were $0, i'da done it! LOL

 

Okay... wow... seriously sick... that's going to a whole 'nother level... why not just shoe-horn in a LS2 while you're going?

Props to you for doing it... but now I think you've gone too far... I wouldn't call it a Cobalt anymore... it's gonna have about as much in common with the rest of us as the pro-street guys running in the IHRA.

 

My card isn't at zero, why should yours be

Thanks and yes it will a trip to see the new layout of the engine bay.
The heart of my "Cobalt" is still an LSJ, which is the very reason I am not shoe horning in a V8. The rwd just fixes the design flaw GM made, when they built this car. When I go around kicking V8 ass I will do so with a "Cobalt's" little 4 cylinder engine.

 

If thats the case id go V8 like a LT1 and cram that bitch under that hood


Good Luck

 

there is one guy in nova scotia who has v8'd his cobalt. havent seen it though

 

There is a guy in Washinton state who has a full on drag car with a 350 in it but that one does only look like a Cobalt.
If I had started the project with rwd in mind, then I would likely have done the V8, but the rwd conversion came out of neccessity more than planning.

 

yours is 10000000% original thats the best part.

 

ok, I want to watch, I'm subscribing...Go little Red Cobalt..

(I want to do this with my cavalier eventually)

 

so im thinking a VERY long how to huh????

 

so when is the car going to be finished?

 

LT1?! LS1, baby!

Either way, badass project! You'll be throwing crazy numbers and smoke from those rear wheel wells. Very cool!

 

I am happy to say it maybe coming by my house in june. I like getting close to celebrities. he is famous now.

 

We are looking at June for completition. I hope this deadline is met.
The V8 comes the next time I go crazy. As for the smoke coming off the back tires we are going with 335 street tires, 390 drag radials and still undecided on the race slicks. We are expecting some crazy numbers out of a little 4 banger
Yes, and I like my steak medium rare and thick.

 

are there any companies out there that offer a rwd conversion

 

None that I know of. I do not think there is such a thing other then custom.
