    Hell yeah. There not going to be fun because there is nothing bolt on about them. I am hoping to get a couple more mpg too. I was getting 20 mpg city with 4bt. Hoping for 22.

    Don't hate on my tranny because it's a ford zf5-s42. It works very well with the rpm band of my engine. I have a modified flywheel and a valair ford clutch with a destroked adapter. I'll keep you updated on the front end.

    I have the hood bolt to the back hinge to keep it in place. It's a two piece hinge I can prop up the hood and begin seperating the radiator core from the rest of the headlight mount.
