My cars already gone through a couple major top end overhauls but I thought I'd start a build thread to show the parts, catalog it's current state and keep everything up to date. I was supposed to have it tuned on the this week but my tuner has more issues in his life than Time Life.

Bought with 68k miles in 2005

436rw with a stock long block and even stock manifolds (Proof that you don't need EM to gain any power and it's not worth it until you do long tubes and you're out of other mods.)

Another new Alarm (The previous owner had to have been a retard. I ended up replacing 80% of the wiring under the dash and through the car.) I can't find any pictures of the new dash/DD deck setup. I'll update them as I find them.

If you're going to rewire your engine harness, smack that B!tch with force.

I was going to put the S/C back on today but I just had OCD over this stupid harness. I wont be able to do anything else until it's perfect.
