Mine would get that GT500 engine that guy is installing in the supercharger forum. I would take out the column shift and throw in a T56. Dreaming is fun

teh t-56 would be fun but I think a 5 speed auto would be faster for most drivers

if I find a superduty with a 6 speed and a 2 valve gasoline motor it's gonna be game on and then I'd run a t-56 behind the "new" powerplant

Yeah the T56 would be a lot more fun and I agree for most the auto would be faster, but I can bang gears pretty well.

Been fooling with my FX2 bumper grille project. I believe I found a gold mine in how I mounted it, no brackets at all.

I had a blank cut off the bottom of an FX2 grille and shipped to me from fomoco446. I cut around the periphery of it with a hacksaw blade, the part that is flush with the grille surround. I then eyeballed where I had to cut for my grille opening.

I still wanted to have my front license plate bracket and the way I cut the grille it wedges into the license plate bracket, no need to use any brackets to mount it.

I'll have a thread with pics soon after my camera battery is charged. I think it looks pretty good.



Time for a beer.

Oh yeah, I also removed my 3rd brake light, cleaned the mating surfaces and siliconed it back on. I am sure it won't leak this time.
