Nice Job. I've always wondered what your car looked like and you didn't disappoint. Nice job on painting and cleaning everything while you had it apart(its the only way in my opinion)it makes putting it all back so much cleaner and easier.
Great Garage also. Have fun with it.

Originally posted by RCWells View PostAwesome work, I love to see that stuff documented. So the big question is how does it work out? Comparisons? Weight/handling?

3.73 LDS - it's a bit too low for the motor, but I really like 2nd gear pulls as is. A 4.10 would be worthless - you'd never use 1st except for pulling tree stumps.
I was afraid to go with a 3.25 - worried it might be too low.Originally posted by Matt-Bhey does anyone know anyone who gets upset and makes electronics?

I wish I had taken more pictures during the swap process, but every time I went to grab my camera, my dad called me a homo! Ahhh, very nice swap indeed, thats cool that you used the stock harness, when I convert back to motronic I want to use the eta harness... Good job!Originally posted by Matt-Bhey does anyone know anyone who gets upset and makes electronics?
