    Yeah it does. So I need to keep it as cheap as possible. I may replace the upper and lowers and see if they are necessary.

    I can use the upgraded parts if I can prove they cost the same or less than the stock components. If they cost more, I have to count the different against me. So, If I can find a deal it may be worth it.

    Thanks for the links. I should have specified on the brakes. Its budget neutral as long as you are replacing with stock components. I'll weigh my options and see if I can afford to upgrade some but With everything fresh the stock set up should be fine. Drove the car today and the motor and...

    Got the coil over kit in. Waiting on the end links to get here though. Forgot to swap the wheels. To-Do list is growing. I've got to do something with the brakes asap. They are terrible. Luckily that won't count against my budget. Need to track down a small oil leak as well. Thanks to this board...

    Shortened End Link Length?

    Looks like the Moog Stock Replacement is Part # k8848 Bolt is 7.75" and Sleeve is 3.9 inches. My question is with a 1.5 Lowering kit how much shorter does it need to be? Ive searched around and havent found a concrete answer. Id prefer to track down a part over the counter than fab one up...

    Researching Budget Build

    Thanks for the input. I didn't realize the long tubes made that big of a difference in these cars. I'm not a great welder but have done enough recently I could get by. Need to look in to it and see exactly what it requires and what it would cost not only for the headers but to finish out the...

    Researching Budget Build

    Yeah I can do everything I need to do myself. After I finish the T56 swap in my Skylark I will focus more time on this. Would have liked to have found it a couple months from now, but It was just too good of a deal to pass up at $400. Motor runs good and the trans shifts well. Front bags will...

    Researching Budget Build

    So I read back through the rules.. They seem to be tweaked every year. Brakes components can be replaced with a stock replacement and not count against budget. So tires and brakes are a given. I appreciate the estimations I had no clue what a tune on these would cost. I agree that a tune would...

    I'm not expecting anything mind blowing just put something together on budget that I can have fun with. If it will run in the 14s Through the 1/4 I'd be happy. You also have run an auto cross. Budget is $2017. But tires don't count against you and you can sell parts to recoup up to half the...

    I have been looking around for a V8 RWD to run in the $2017 Challenge. I noticed that you can get running Mark 8s fairly cheap with bad air ride, so I started doing some research and this is a great site. First car I drove after getting my learner's permit was my mom's '95 mark 8, so I have...
