yeah Manny (owner of HPP) had my car on the dyno and it was running 210 w/ stock thermostat and 60* outside. he told me he would not dyno my car because it was running to hot for the weather it was in. so they swapped that in and a 160* thermostat (and drilled some holes in it for more cooling) and it was idling at 155 and jumped to 170 on the dyno. sooo it runs a lottttt cooler now.

idk the price of the motor exactly because i picked up the 97 cobra with it but i can take a guess.

motor: ~3000
spec stage 3 clutch: 320
new gaskets: 250
aluminum driveshaft: ~400
thermostat, tune, radiator, labor at HPP: 1115
tubular kmember: ~500
coilovers: ~400

so roughly 6,000 dollars? that sounds pretty high.

i think thats everything thats been involved in this buildup so far. some of this stuff came off the 97 cobra so if my numbers are off, let me know. im just guessing at the retail prices of some of these.

dude onyx i know! i did a photoshop of my car a few months ago and slammed the front to about the height its at now and drooled over it. now i have that stance! i can barely put two fingers side by side between the top of the tire and the fender. its such a nice stance. i will clean the car up this week and get some nice HDR images this week/weekend.

woooo!
