WTF!! $350.00!!!! Post pics of this thing, and that's the body style I plan on doing.

Thanks.

Sebambam

yea...was a super steal.. clean title.. no rust..

driver sie window didnt roll up all the way.. was sitting for 4 month and has Mold on the seats.. no black mold ..lol
I ll replace the Seats anyways.. everything else get a deep cleaning..

idk what i can get for the stock 3.8 with auto tranny.. its running.. Alternator died thats it.

i was thinking about my possible build
while i would like to build a more performance oriented LSx i have to admit that i really need a reliable daily driver that i can drive distances as well if needed..
therefore i wanna stay NA and 300-350 HP would be sufficent..
so i guess the way cheaper 5.3 is what im going for..
unless i find a sweet deal on a 6.0.

my other build is a 68' Buick GS (Pro Touring) that i either small block turbo or Chevy big block Stroker.. so there goes my iron power monster.

Dude, really!!! You stole that thing, that is exactly what I'm looking for. I'm in the same boat, looking to build a reliable daily driver.
With that one, I would almost put an alternator on it and drive it for awhile. How many miles on it?

Thanks.

Sebambam

145 k miles..
lol.. Alternator.. Naaww man it needs a ls..
just need to source one..

How about the might 4.8, great little motors, with a good price.

Sebambam

idk... Kinda the same as a mustang gt 4.6
..
they ok if turboed..
but i rather go 5.3
unless you can show me a powerful simple 4.8 build NA.. Cam, headers etc.

don't let anybody tell you a 5.3 is like a 302. that might be the dumbest thing I have read since joining this site. 5.3 or a 4.8 is a great motor and thousands of people have gone very fast on them

Sebambam

lol.. Well at least i have my own thoughts if somebody says that.. Im really shooting for a 5.3 because of simplicity and the potential.

Stampede4ever

Totally agree with this statement, I was alittle iffy about the 4.8, but the more I think about it, it's more then what my daily is. And I will not feel bad if it blows when it's boosted.

Sebambam

boosted 4.8 is nice...

i am planning on boosting my olskool 68 right now... So my daily will be NA

Nice score. I started out with an 03 v6 car. Mine will have a 408 in it one day...just picked up a lq4 the other day. Mine has a sbc in it right now , I used an aje k-member in it with their motor mounts. Super easy to do. Pretty sure the worse part of my swap will be deal with headers. Bumper exit race car.

Sebambam

nice any pics??
i will wait for Hookers motor mount conversion so i dont have to do the whole K-memeber thing.
i hope they have them out soon.
IF they for some reason dont work i can go with a AJE as well.

Im a lil busy on my "good" car the 68 ABody so i havent even had the chance to score a Motor/tranny yet.


BTW has anybody ever seen a "NewEdge" with JDM bolt on Fender Flares?
i like the look on Foxbodies .. could be cool on a 02 Mustang i think?

Mungface78

He's got a build thread on the conversions forum. Nice find BTW! I found a 94 for 300 but I recently found out that the damn trunk is rusted out pretty bad.... I'll probably end up cutting it out and putting a fuel cell there.

Sebambam

who needs a trunk.... beers will be in the Cup holder right
lets see what i can do with this turd.. im still in California.. to have it as a dialy i have to find "ways" to smog it.
