Yeah right now im working with 9fitty1 (my friend derek) on a parts car he got that im buying. We are doing an engine swap and upgrading a bunch of stuff. The actual swap and stuff is a lil mind boggling but im still learning a lot of stuff thanx to him. My knowledge from when we started a month ago is like x10. Any questions i can always ask him or people on here. We've even got help from a guy near us who lent us a engine hoist, great guy. All i can say is it wont be easy but if you're like me u will love knowing about the car and being able to do some/most stuff yourself so HAVE FUN. My car should be running in about 2 weeks... IM SO ANXIOUS lol.
