Guys, c'mon...

It's time to drop the whole rear suspension crap. This thread is about an engine for sale, not a suspension...

I beleive the nitrous is going with the motor. The nitrous tune-up will also be with the motor so they whoever buys it can run it safe like we did. The motor is getting pulled soon for the freshen-up.
