Yeah, I stood the rad up and redirected the air so it flows straight into, instead of under. plus it makes sense like you said for turbo. wnet with no grill and I think since the intercooler is black it looks alright.

thank you sir. it is fun to drive, easy on fuel too. its stiff, no radio heat or A/C solid motor mounts it aint luxury, but simple and dependable. does my DD duty quite well.

I just couldn't wait anymore, someone had to do it! yes the 10-bolt is still in there. 2.73 gears keep it happy, factory locker axle outta 2001 transam. UMI full rear suspension. if it blows, i'll but another cheap 10-bolt from Cleveland Pick-a-Part who is a sponsor here and has been great to me.

yeah those little buggers mess around with me sometimes. i've had a few tell me all that smoke my engine is gonna blow. I tell them I can't seem to find the right spark plugs for it. then they go on to tell me about there bicycle engines.
I gotta get some pics of the hood on my car. to someone who mentioned harwood. Yes, it does have a Harwood wide 2.5" cowl hood on it currently. For awhile now it's still has the gel-coat from factory. too cheap to get it painted lol
