    Tranny w/ converter and cooler: $2800
    gears: 250
    MSD: ???$200???
    CAI: $150
    long tubes w/ y-pipe and bullet: $500
    Tuning: $450
    Wheels: $400
    Tires: $600
    Gaskets: $100
    Opti, wires, elec WP: $500
    Total install: about $2000

    Total comes out to around $10,000

    Add another $4,000 to that for previous setups including tuning.

      C. near future? You selling Casa De Diertay? I'll bet you could ge a cool 3.5 mil for it. All joking aside, with a mortgage, and any other payments at all making what you make unless your Meth Lab is up and running again how you gonan pull 15-20 for motor work out of your ass?

      just a question or two =D


      A. I do most of my own installs unlike you.


      B. You obviously have no idea how to build a car that will have 500+rwhp and make it stay together and perform up to par.


      C. Why would it cost 15-20 thousand dollars to build a motor???? I'll have maybe 6-7K into the stroker with heads and intake.


      D. You better get Baller to sponser your ass or you will be left in the dust once again.

        QA1 makes coil over kits for almost any car starting at $550.00, call my work and we can give you right on pricing. We also carry Wilwood brakes and they should have both front and rear setups for that car.

          well they have the coilover shocks, but they do not have the upper and lower control arms to go with it. Plus the new shock tower mounts. The kits from TCP include all that. I already own the brake kit so that is done and over. Just the front coilover and the power rack and pinion is what I am doing next.

            I guess without the car I would have about about 3000(?) or so into it between last year and the stuff almost totally installed this year. Rough estimate.

I understand you have a religion called LS motors and you have faith that the LS motors break the laws of physics and work better and cost less than anything else ever built. Plus they never wear out.

            I disagree.

                    I have $1000 invested in mods at the moment, including labor.

                    That includes the HiTech tune, FRPP 3.73s & install, Weld wheels, front tires and BFG DRs, FRPP springs, and MAC offroad H-pipe.

                    This also takes into account the factory wheels/tires I sold.

                      i have no idea

                      But what i do know is everything came installed and i payed a total of 12,800 for the car and mods.

                      i have a feeling im came out ahead looks at some of the costs on some of your mods lists.

                          dirt i'm syaing 10-15k for your stroker and power adder you mentioned. To do it right thats what you should need but we know you spend a little time under some peoples desk to get discounts

                          just playin.. you get soo testy geesh relax. I guess i'm not one of those type of guys that pours every dime i make into my car, to each his own i guess. If i did do that i could say the same to you try n keep up cuz yur gonna be left behind. I'll be happy for you to have the fastest 97SS on the planet go even faster.

                            It scares me to think about it too much, so I thought I would try to figure out how many parts are stock instead...............Rear coils and rear shocks. Anyone got some drag springs and adj. rear shocks for sale?

                              10-15k? I will have about 6k into my motor before I have to build up the bottom end in another year....which will be another 2k when all said and done, and then another 4k into an ELectromotive EFI setup a year or two after that. Granted it's carbed (for now), stuff still ain't cheap, but I bet he could keep it under 10k since he know's a lot of the same guys I do.
