Another 5.0 build: #projectmerica

[ballski]

cut the stock flares out and that was sad and scary. primed the new flares twice, ready for color and clear.

ordered my tires: 215/40 and 265/40 out back :)

driveshaft is in and fits perfect. I had to use a couple washers on each mounting point of the diff to the subframe since the DS hit at the top a tad

[eurotrash]

Do you have the jackstands under the subframe? Noticed my ds hit when lifted from the subframe (dif also) but not when on the tires. My bushings are shot though i guess so that could be why but take a look when its on the ground just in case.

Also if you cut the rear flairs out remember its unibody and u'll need to weld ghat juction back up.

I have the jackstands on the pinch rails so hopefully it won't move much once it gets on the ground.

And yes, I noticed that there's a hole now, shit. O well

[eurotrash]

You have to weld it back up. Basicly you can fan out the inner fender and weld it to the outer then fill it with expanding foam and weld the slits in the inner fender.

I think you need some aluminum heads......I have a GREAT deal on a pair or very newish Edelbrock RPM's
