The anticipated cost is a lot lol...

Well with everything I sold from the car originally Im almost break even except the rims and air ride.

I sold a 5g turbo kit, rims, and an old air ride kit. So you figure about 7g plus 2300 for rims, a couple grand for air.. its going to be a 10-12k endeavour.

Hoping to get started on the rear end in the next couple of days (if the rims show), until then I will be working on my rad mounts

So are you like an engineer for an automotive company or just an extremely smart guy who has a "knack" for custom fabbing cars? This thing is going to be sweet.

Just fit a 6.0 Liter and all the RWD components and you're worried about where's going to put an intake at. lol
