. looking for a good core support mine is rotted and tweeked . Id like to find a firberglass front bumper.Trans cross memebr finished.... Here is a picture. What I did was cut off the old mounting tab added a piece of box tubing then weled the mounting tab to the end of the box tubing
Bought a Used core support today it is in much better shape than my old ****ter one I had.....
Also traded my stock tranny for a Percesion FMIC
Oh yea I bought a second drivers side manifold and got it on it looks like this will be the ticket at least for me it will be. I have 2 drivers side manifold both are facing foward drvrs side ams down pass aims up. Plan is to bring a pipe from the drvrs side over to the pass side then a short pipe off the pass manifold mate the 2 togetherthen mount the turbo on top of that. its going to close to the hood but it looks like it will clear.... I ordered some exhaust piping to make the cross over pipe should have it done by next weekend.

Update:
Prefabed a 8 point roll cage last night out of DOM mild steel. Hopefully get a chance to install it this weekend :biggrin:
Still woking on the exhaust piping and down pipe. I scrapped the first one I made I didnt like the way it came out.
Hopefully getting some goodies from ITSNOTAGN
