Same here. I was originally going to gather all my parts now and start pulling the motor next fall, but now I'm thinking about starting as soon as the snow melts.

I just don't want to run into any snags and miss the racing season. Not to mention running out of cash.

Well I found the car and pick it up thursday evening. Details so far:

1993 Calypso Green Coupe 4 cylinder conversion roller(spent over half its life in NM so no rust at all)

-Converted with 8.8, 4.10s, trickflow girdle, still 4 lug with weld draglites and 28inch tall e.t. streets, stock drums. Draglite skinnies up front(gonna try and trade all 4 for pro stars)
-Holley blue fuel pump(carb) so thatll get sold and replaced with a walbro 255
-Tubular kmember but unknown what kind as of right now(getting swapped for AJE anyways)
-Battery relocated to the trunk already
-Ford racing upper controls arms in the rear, UPR upper and lowers come with it so they will go on
-Competition engineering rear shocks

Im sure ill find some more info when i actually have the car at the house. Ill post pictures too and ill most likely continue this thread as a build thread.

Started the build like a week or so ago, have the AJE kember installed, checked to verify it had 4.10s, put in the new 255 fuel pump, got the body wiring sorted out.

I have taken a bunch of pictures so i'll start a build thread once i get the motor in the car.

Did you figure out what kind of k-member it is? How much were you looking to get out of it? My friend might be able to use it.
