| Nicely done as is though! The RWD conversion will be pretty sweet too... but I like it this way! We used to have an '86. I love the CRT display/interface. You can watch IPWs right there while you drive! What have you done for custom programming the ECM? _________________ '98 Buick Riviera; Gen V 3.25 pulley, N*, VS Cam, 180 stat, Custom PCM (Powrtuner), headers & HF cat , 42.5 lb inj.

| I say you should do it, only if you can make it functional. Do it offset to the right side, by the turbo intake, and cut the hood under it so it actually feeds the turbo instead of just being there, all rice-y. _________________ 1995 Riviera S/C; 4" Spectre FWI  , 6k HID's  , Infinity Reference 5022i/9623i speakers 2.25" Thrush glasspacks  , 3/4" Thick chrome grille  95,250 miles and so many to go!  |
