Honestly, you probably won't get what you think you might get. My 87 with a supercharger got a little interest, and I only had it up for 4K. BTW, when you rode it in, it was before I replaced the fuel pump, and got a smaller pulley for the charger. Quite a bit faster now. Can keep up with a supercharged cobra mustang.

Well, still got it, nobody could come up with the cash.

If you do end up selling it, good luck. It seems the economy is recovering a little(fake recovery BTW), so cash may free up a little.

++ for this swap. The swap itself is pretty clean.

hahah . ive talked about selling mine also(bored just bsing around) .. but now actually seeing that someone put an actual number on theirs and havent sold it, even with super charger .. i might have been way off with the number i thought mine was worth .. i guess its just what it was worth to me.

birdduck ,superrunner my friends going up to utah (salt lake city) on the 19th in the just completed 1uz runner if you guys have some time maybe you guys can meet up and compare notes maybe a 3 way race on video .. not that his is as fast as the super charged one but hey lets see how much work we have ahead of us ..

RMA, that would be awesome.

ALthough I would have to replace some freeze plugs. Didn't have enough antifreeze I guess, and it froze and popped on out.

yeah its one of those things i will prolly have till my legs fall off but who knows?? that funny supra because new years eve, my radiator froze from the time i got home from work too nine, so 3 hours.. didn't notice till i got a few miles down the road and the temp gauge started to climb, it ended up putting a small hole in the lower hose from the pressure and one of the clamps..
replaced the hose and coolant haven't had a problem since.

i think that would be cool to meet up maybe go play around in the snow, there is a place a few miles from my house thats fun to goof off at and not have to wary about being stranded.

since i got the meets on i lost a lot of poop, but it still ate my buddy's 04 taco for lunch..
hehe taco for lunch mmmm

Did you use a body lift for this engine to fit at all. I know you put new springs on and such just curious.

Birdduck- what did you do about the oil pan fitting? Did you have to modify it to fit the steering and diff? Did you put a body lift on or just the springs?
