  • I'd definitely recommend it. I swear the areas of rust that was disintegrating just bonded right up with the POR-15 and is now rock hard.

                As awesome as that would be I don't have the time or money to put into the car and I don't drive the car enough to do all that work.

                • looks good brian! the engine bay looks killer. if i were you i would just go grab some spray on RUST STOP from ace and do a quick once over on the undercarriage. it's cheap and it'll even everything out where you have thin spots that didnt quite cover the red.

                    • 3200-3400 with a 2 STR I think.

                      Got the rear end mostly in today!!! Still have more work to do, but we had to make a lot of runs to get the right bolts and stuff.

                      By the way - I would definitely NOT recommend using Energy Suspension's rear sway bar bushing kit. The bolt they give you is a good 1-2" too short. Kyle has comparison pics. I had to go to Murrays and buy a new rear sway bar bushing kit ($10) just so I could use the proper length bolt from that kit with the poly urethane bushings.

                            • isnt that intentional for a more effective sway bar?
