Hey, I see you're looking to do a trans. swap. When you're ready, give me a call and I can get you a bolt-in crossmember for whatever trans. you decide on. Also, I carry the steel dipstick tubes w/ a dipstick for whichever trans. Our number is 225-673-3533, ask for Steve

Yup, I have all of mine hooked up as well. Including hatch release I did a pretty clean swap if I may say so myself.

Yup! I mean you can obviously see if when you jack up the car and look underneath, but it doesn't hang or anything and it's away from heat such as headers and such. I could have gone all out and removed the wires from the harness completely, but why chop up a good harness, ya know?

That 11.6 run was a 1.68 60ft so theres a lot to gain there with the 350 alone, but since that run I have fully suspended the car, changed cams, lost weight, 28" tires and am going to a spool. I dont think a 10.999999999999999999 would be impossible. The power is there just need to get the rest of the car up to task.
