    Id be careful buying a 95 V8. The concept of this is very cool though. I think there are like 40 body modifications you have to do to make it fit.

    yea from what i have herd you can leave the stearing rack in the same place you just need to rout it through the headers.


    what price are you looking at for the engine and is it the 6speed manual? (i believe 6speed autos are just comeing out)
