I'm doing pretty much the same to my impala so far I took all the crap off from the engine bay. And completely gutted the interior. I'm just gonna add lw carpet, a kirkey seat and a chris alston moly roll cage. (Yes they make it for impalas 2!!!) its looking good tho what do u have done to the motor?
