I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

to tell you the truth.. i have no idea.. the motor is bone stock for right this second, so i can get through inspection.. as soon as i get that pretty sticker she's coming apart and getting all those pretty parts..

i hope to hit at least low 14's

I highly doubt you will pass inspection with that carbed set-up...especially if you're running an off road h-pipe.  You'd be better off buying a sticker.  If state fails you, private places won't sell you one then.  Good luck with it...I'm diggin' the LSC wheels.

screw state insp.. i wouldn't take my daily driver to state insp.. they stink :fart:

as for the wheels.. they're not LSC wheels.. they're ARE wheels.. i've been trying to get ahold of someone at ARE to see if they could make a few more sets, they look shagy on my 82 capri:D
