Well, after 6 long months the car is done. It has been a hell of project. I need to say a big thanks to a lot of people for the help. I just had it dyno tuned up at DB Performance in St. Paul and got it back. Here are a few pictures of the build. It went from a supercharged v6 to supercharged v8. All new everything, not one part left from the v6.
A Big Thanks to My Dad and brother xr4life and the rest of my family!
DB Performance (Danny) for all the hard work and tuning!
H&W For all the great welding and help!
Allgo for the parts and help!
LT1DAN, LukeC for helping with pulling the motor!
Shane for the help and lift!
69gt4speed for the plug help!
Horn for the parts!
The rest of the SIN crew!
And all the others!

convertables are always a bit heavier though- id expect it to be up close to the normal '03-'04 cobras. cool car though.
