Very nice,
I have a couple questions. How did the transmission fit and what crossmember did you use? Also what oil pan are you using? This is the exact setup I have compiled to put in my 93 gt minus the maggie. I'm hoping to get started soon. Hopefully you'll get this going and I can see some numbers. Thanks,
Brian

If you are serious somethings wrong with your car taste....

Chevy guy or not foxbody coupes are great looking cars.

Oh well. To each their own.

How do you like the Dynatech headers? I'm thinking about ordering a set myself.

Why not go with a Vette blower setup that would have fit under the hood?

To each their own is right. I'm no Fox fan (looks are bleh), but I do like the car as a damn good platform for modifications. Pairing it to a blown ls... priceless.

Have fun.

Who cares if people dont like it, I am doing the same swap with a 93 hatch. Hatchback stangs are worth nothing and parts are cheap on corral.net so I am going with it. I originally was going to do a 69camaro swap but the car alone was 10k and I needed the money and sold it, so this solution is smart sense in this crap economy.
