Mods for winter

[DanO]

Its about that time of year.... Modding season

Whats everyone doing this winter

Im going for full LT's and exhaust, suspension stuff, EFI Live, and maybe a cam (depending on what SCCA classi want to be in)

Deffinately some susp stuff, (LCA's, SFC's, Torque Arm) and M/T ET Streets!! :smt023 'Verts are nice but for some strange reason they seem to have a little more flex?? Hmmmmmm

H/C package, and a TC and Cooler is on the "wish" list.

How much can I get in past the wife?

This is the eternal question?? :smt017 :)lol

Since I'm too broke got the Mustang II/mod motor/T-56 combo for this winter I'm going to look into bolting a T-5 behind the 289, should be cheap. Clip part of the front coils to get it to sit a little better until the M-II front end can be worked into the budget. Maybe wheels and tires? The stereo install was intended to be a week long thing but I keep getting distracted before I make it to the garage at night. So it might end up turning into a winter project.

No mods for me over winter, to cold to work on the things- even though I have a garage, it's hard to deal with freezing on the concrete.

I think it'd be faster to list what's not getting modded on my car. :smt020
This winter, I'm doing:

Engine swap (351 Cleveland)
Transmission swap (M5R2 5-speed)
Fuel cell
New Interior
Upgrade suspension
13"/12" F/R disc brakes
New Speakers
Build new sub box
New Wheels/Tires
Chassis bracing
Full Autometer instrumentation
Nitrous install (maybe)

I'm sure I'm forgetting a few things, but that's the jist of it. :smt048

Kinda makes me want to cry but im the kind that gets bored with things. I just need something that is more reliable and that comes with performance and speed :smt025 and i can make look better without sacrificing reliability. Not only that but if i transfer to MSU this christmas then im going to need a winter car and i cant afford 2 cars
