She's actually cool with it . Only request from her is that I have a automatic tranny put in . I have a MAJOR problem sticking to a budget when it comes to toys & hobbies . A hunting trip to Africa for 5 animals turned into 28 , a factory rifle gets so much custom parts to it I could have just built a custom rifle for 1/2 the price lol . I'm just scared it will turn into "it's only ANOTHER 5,000.00 to do ...." X 15 different things Hahahah .

Don't even think about a budget with a project like this!

Corey does great work. I'd highly recommend him to anyone thinking about a project like this.

The engine and transmission are all aligned now. The shifter is installed and fits through the factory hole perfectly. Header is installed on the passenger side and should be completed tomorrow.

Today I ordered the Lokar throttle cable and brakets. Tomorrow I will order the Gauges and the rest of the electronics.
