Hi,
I had a 88 LX vert with a 351w, and a 93 coupe. both have 5 lug conversion, the vert was a cruzer.. just for fun, then at MW last year I saw some pretty nice coupes and wanted to get one.. so i found one in decent shape with alot of potential, i stripped it down, 5 lug and disk break conversion.. sold the 302 w/a carb .. 4 lug wheels, etc.. put in a UPR k member w/ coil overs in the front, and was going to put another 351w in it... but... i figured.. lets see what i can get for my vert.. so i put it up for sale or trade.. and an 07 GT w/ a whipple came across my path w/ only 31k on the clock. ran like a beast.. so needless to say I did the trade and have a complete car to do the swap into the coupe. The 07 mechanically was perfect, but the body was horrible.. it was rolled, with really bad body work.. but the drive train was perfect.. no leaks, doesnt burn oil, no knocking etc.. all the good things.. so i started on google trying to figure out everything i can use, swap, sell, trash etc.. and that put me on this site after a few days of searching.. I'm also a member on sefb.net which are a great group of guys..
Nice to meet you all, and thanks in advanced for the help as i'm sure i'll be looking for it.
