Haha... did you read the other guy blabber about how soldering is bad for automotive stuff because of vibration? How do they come up with this shit? A crimp tube will resist vibration better than soldered joint? I better call NASA they need to stock up at autozone cause they've been doing their shit wrong for 50…

I would stick a northstar in there... just to enjoy 9k rpm redline....

Im not sure why grave robber listed c5 donor at 15k, since the engine and trans and body are not used you could snatch a roller or a totalled one for under 5k. Anyhow the kit above is a rip off... i mean the engine overheated? Asking how much? No way this will sell, for that dough i rather get a :

I usually go by 80lbs for aluminum and 100lbs for steelies on passenger cars. Torque wrench comes in handy when you’re tired from working on the car the whole weekend- what feels like 80 is 50lbs :)

If you do any car tasks do yourself a favor and get a decent one. These things need calibration, no way i would trust a h-f torque wrench. I have a craftsman 30-150 lbs- thats another thing to look at - get something with decent lbs range so you dont need to get anotherone down the road.

Dogs tend to “claw down” when in the car, ill take pet hair over leather scratches any day (ask me how i know )

Good pic selection bruh! Nice and classy.... not like my choice:

Thats only in GB i guess, i grew up in Yrooop and skoda was regarded as one of the best quality eastern economical cars ( tatra ZiL and chaika were notavailable) did you guys get other eastern block cars? Or did people just hate on skoda cause it was the only car from wrong side of the curtain?

I think skoda was always a good car, you just cant compare it to a lincoln mark v, compare it to other economical cars from yroop like reliant robin or a trabant. ...

Im not worried about stigma but the article said the SN mustang doesnt have the fox body stigma, so i indicated that its not thrue, there is a stigma to most cars, civics, bmw, pickups, minivans, priuses and the worst of the worst mustangs :)

I with you eric is awesome. A lot of people talk about might car mods-I cant stand it.

Yep. 90% of that icon for one fifteenth of the cost.

Apologies accepted, is that a trabbi in your avatar?

Im about 4 years younger, have a kid too.... luckily my wife moved out 2 years ago so now i have room in the vette for my son:)

I would love to drive this car but it is mind boggling why tf someone spent over 100k on it. I can duplicate it ( less the doorhsndles etc) for about 10k:
