ZZ430 stuff....

Ok folks, here's my plan....Find a decent looking, cheap F-body. (Had to sell the old firebird when i moved to arizona) Buy GMPP's ZZ4 conversion kit for the F-body's. The one with all the exhaust and whatnot with it. Pick up the rest of the parts to crank out a stout 430 horsepower, aka ZZ430 style. Splat some paint, redo interior, make some suspension mods (ala tubular anything i can bolt on, and poly suspension and what not.) Remove old tranny, rework, make better than new. Sprinkle in some blood, stir with some sweat, and mince in some tears. Think i can do it under 10 grand? Including around a $1500 purchase for the car? I hope so!
