pretty simple really, just look at what the vett has or uses and what the f body doesn't and all you have to do is figure out how to weld/fabricate it.

BTW, you don't have to remove the fuel tank and replace it with a fuel cell. Use the search button. We just had a thread with pics recently all about this. Good luck.

My brothe has it done in his 87' Iroc. I can get pics of whatever you need to know about. It was a pretty straight forward install but it is very important to make sure you get in in straight or you'll have a bunch of problems. I don't think that this is something you should consider doing this in your garage unless your garage is a well appointed auto shop. Just my two cents.

I thought you were going to ask about blowing up the IRS building with C4 plastique explosives.

Anyone who wants to to this conversion, let me know and I'll give you the contact info for a great source for the parts. He'll do a complete rear setup for between $650-$1200. The low end is a Dana 36 (base auto) 2.59, and the upper end is for a Dana 44 (sport auto & 6sp) 3.43(?). They range depending on miles and ratio, but that's a friggin' screamin deal. Also, he's got Vette seats (C4 & C5) at reasonable prices. I don't know what he'll charge for shipping, but he's got good stuff.
