since you started from scratch i would go ahead and do a tuck on all those ugly ass wires...will look 100% better.. or at least the ones on the passenger side..

i was gonna do this but i never had a chance to plug up all the holes in the bay so im just gonna leave it. looks kinda ugly with all them holes and no wires. what i am gonna do tho is simplify the harness.. iwont be using abs so imma remove the connector and wires..same goes for all other things i wont be using... ie: washer fluid pump, cruies control, wiper motor... also gonna be relocating the battery

i will be posting more pics up as i finish...plans for the car are below... i have all parts already for this build just need to paint and install mostly. my main plans as of right now is getting this thing all cleaned up..even tho it was a 95 there was tons of rust i had to remove... might put 75 shot still undecided.. car will be more of a street/strip weekend driver...


03 cobra motor
comp cams
upper lower pully w/idler set
posi race port
kooks long tubes

still has stock pos rear but once car is all running it will be getting a mini tub with a moser m9 rear... 4:54 gears....

as for the trans i have a jw th400 kit..th400 trans will be rebuilt by ziggy's. they are based out of nj and i hear the do great work!!!

Curious as to why you put all that MM stuff on there if it's going to be a drag car. There's a lot of stuff out there that's a lot cheaper, a lot lighter, and a lot more geared towards drag racing.

purchased the full kit for 500 bucks at a swap meet... couldnt pass that deal up.. i also didnt want a full drag setup.... depending on what coil spring rate i install i can have it set up for drag or road course.also went with this one cuz this car will be driven on the street and i would like some kind of streetable drivability.. wasnt looking for the lightest kit out there either..


so far from what i can see.. the mm k member, control arms, and cc plates are made verry well....

$500 for all that, well worth it. Good find! Good luck with the rest of the build
