Well here is a short video I put together but when I uploaded it to youtube it distorted the sound and added all the crappy popping and crackling you here I am going to re edit it and see if that helps but here it is for now. Again sorry for the sound.

Dude hot driving.

How do you like the gauge cluster?

xyster

I like it, and it gives me a lot more info than the stock one.

Here is a shot of some new blue and black alcantera interior upgrades thanks to Joe at JPM Coachworks.

Well tomorrow is the day!!!! A photographer is comming in from Nashville to do a photoshoot for Modified Magazine. I can't wait it has been a long mind breaking road so far but well worth every penny (or 100.00 bill) however you want to look at it.

sorry i scanned through alot of pages so far but what was the approximate cost to do this?

[DT]

Awesome! I hadn't seen an update in a while, I wasn't about the status. Can't wait to see this pics!

Cost it all determined by what the donor car cost you and if you can do the work yourself. But I would say starting with a 8-10K car, 5k for low mile motor and tranny with ECM and all other things, drivshaft, 2k-2.5k for the rearend depending on which way you go. If you go with my mounting kit that will be available soon (motor mounts, tranny mount, measurements for welding and cutting, and wiring schematic and Ford diff mount) that will be about 2.5k. And labor I would guess 2 weeks in a shop at at least 80.00 an hour on the lowest end =$6400.
So a 9,000 car
5,000 motor low mile LS1 and T56
3,000 diff and kit
6,400 labor low end
500 exhuast
1,500 odds and ends, lines, clutch master,hoses, fittings
= 25,400 give or take
In my case I have a new paint job and all S.S. lines, fuel cell, and custom dash and interior, wheels, wing, snad other custom touches on top of all that. Thats why if you want mine you can have it for 28k.

That is a sick car especially after the paintjob and new wheels.

But its just like having a v8 s2k is really out of the crowd but still I want to ask if you still have that feeling of rail like handling and how do you feel when shifting at lower rpm?

Anyways there would be like shiiiit load of torque ahahah, and like the sound too, very different for an S.

Loved the whole build. Awesome.

xyster

It still handles great as the car is still 50/50 weight balance and it only weights 65 lbs. more than my stock S, and yes the torque is great.
