                        • Pitching in some input from experience. I have a ZX2 (BG escort) with the KL swap and currently doing steel plates instead of the crossmember for the turbo kit to fit. I used a GoPro3 to capture what goes on during normal daily driving with a couple wot runs.

                          1st video is the front, which is fine, I have to put my traction bar system back on it which goes across underneath the radiator support to the frame rails then to the lower arms.

                          [ame]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c3DBr30x25U&feature=player_embedded[/ame]

                          2nd video is the rear, but it was missing 1 stud from PO who grinded it off, and I had to make the hole bigger on the other one because I mis-calculated. You can see it was not good enough. I eventually fixed the broken stud and closed up the hole on the other side and added another support plate in 3rd video.

                          3rd video, final product, I may round the corners and paint it black to prevent rust. I do have a faulty distributor which is reason you hear the cutoff so early.

                              I'm not serious about forgetting to tighten rod bolts. (I'd have to be pretty high to **** up that bad)
                              But yes A kid is on the way.

                              Not much going on with the probe, another season about done. Put 300k on it this year.
                              Cleared out some land to build a 32x40ish shop next spring. I have a 67 firebird that needs attention,

                              Congrats....
