      it you do the full harness, full drive train, and modify what needs done to fit, it wont be that hard..

      might need to do the cluster too, as well as the dash if its that involved in the wiring. security, but i am hoping not to.

      making moving mounts is th easiest part, axles not too bad. spindles and brakes? maybe..

      after 8k to 12k, it should turn out very nice

      I would put a new dash in too, or modify it for new gauges like you said

      it would be one hell of a car

      you were right, 3000 at 65mph.. but i was right too, and 4000 rpm is 85-90..

      i guess i also realized, that ar 65 mph i am usually just about the shift out of 3rd gear.. so i can see why i didn't know where the rpms were in 5th that slow.

      Re: close ratio gear box..

      I am using 4.176 final drive ratio.
      Original is 3.944.

      Accelaration is faster with bigger final drive ratio. All gears become closer.
