well i stand corrected... then im not sure how that worked out then .. well if you want studs let me know and ill order some for you ... not a problem at all

Nah, no biggie-getting the car running is more a priority than the header studs-once its running, i will decided if i want to convert to bolts or put studs on the car.

maybe it happened when you told me the motor fell a few times while installing? not a big deal, just could have been the possible source for broken studs.

Been doing a little tinkering here and there with it-been de-greasing the engine bay. The previous owner replaced the PS pump but never cleaned off all the fluid from under the hood.

I have been looking at some rigs on Preludepower in terms of custom PS reservoir brackets, Shifter cable brackets, etc. Now, time to get more work done

Anymore work done on this yet? It looks like a unique project man.

unfrortunatley, no. I just destroyed the oil pan on my LS swapped EF 4dr on a rock on my way home from work. I had an awful day and that made it that much worse. Thats priority #1 to replace that right now.

Once i get some reimbursements from my house (taxes and work reimbursements for buying my house), then i can dip into the Lude.

yea your totally right! Especially in the STL and midwest. My first one i bought back in 96 already had rust on it then. I spent 1000 bucks to have the whole car repainted with new metal cut into and welded in and it STILL rusted a year later.

This car came from Portland Or so it has no rust whatsoever!

No real update on the car-finances have been tight till i get my tax return then the work will progress!
