Welcome from The Left Coast!

Pics. Definitely pics, especially of that twin turbo set up! Super helpful and knowledgeable people here, so fire away with questions.

Burn out pics are a must! But if youre like me, the car is in no shape to spin tires. Just post a pic of you sitting down pedaling your feet like a burn out.....thatll work!

Im just joking

Welcome along

Welcome to the herd. I've got two 98 GT ragtops, one for me and one for my wife. I would love to see pics of the build!

Thanks, all. I can burn 'em down with the stock engine for now. I bought a 2000 donor car and the block and heads are at the machine shop. Initial plans include JE pistons and Boss 302 rods, keeping the stock PI heads and intake. Haven't decided on cams (stock or custom). Picking up parts on Facebook market place has yielded the pistons, a spec stage 2 clutch, boost and AFR gauges with a pillar pod, Team Z K-member with a-arms and coilovers, a Mishimoto slim fan. eBay has provided seats and short throw shifter. CJ Pony parts new carpet.

I'm giving the eBay twin turbo kit a go. Between me and a friend, we can fab about anything. It'll be a slow build, but I'm looking forward to it.

It’s going slowly. Heads, block, rods and pistons are at the machine shop. Picking up parts a little at a time. Got screwed on Facebook market for some rear end gears, god I hate a damned thief
