LOL not really, of this thread.

The blower requires 225 engine HP to operate, so I'm trying to bring the non-assisted LSJ up to that spec, it'll be tight but it'll make it, then I just have to try not to demonstrate how to blow the motor with boost surge. Be a little bit before I get the new blower together.

Ill be sure to tell Powell that when I order the rear. "Ah yes, I'd like the titty blue rear tow hook and do you have a harness bar to match it?" lawls

That is something I should look into doing when I get the chance, something to obsess over while waiting a few months for parts. Excellent execution though, very clean, watched one my guys back in Virginia plaid out his whole SRT-4, beastly 450whp deserves to look funky. You seem to know what your doing though he struggled lol!

Thanks I wanted to be a little different.

Took a few tries and a bit of patience. Hoping the door panels won't be too tough. And I need to find some black seats. Either some tc or sparco r100 will do nicely I think.

Corbeau's are affordable and they sell the mounting plates, have heated seat switches, and sell harnesses all the same, can even get a reclining seat. I like Corbeau more from a more practical $$$ point. Bride's are really nice but I don't have the money for em. Looking at getting some CR1's. Never spent much time with the Recaro (which has tried valiantly to take my ***** a few times) and Sparco.

Ill have to look into that. Powell sells the brackets for the sparco seats so thats why I'd go that route.

I can see it looking good if you do the door panels and do some black an d white seats otherwise idk if i can stand behind you on this route haha. Either way the stock seats gotta go

Your plugging the bitch ear holes right

Marlboro reds ftw

They're for sure going. As for plugging the holes, I don't trust qwik steel and welding cans warp it so idk.
