Thanks Rodger! I'm always trying to build something different that I think is cool, most don't get it. If I only had the skill set to keep up with the crazy ideas I have, I'd be plumb dangerous! :lol:

Loving this project!

Any ideas to prevent it from sounding like a Honda? Pardon my ignorance if the Ecotec's have a distinctive sound to themselves.

Mine actually turned out kinda throaty. It didnt have that high pitched raspy crap. Might have been 'cause the whole exhaust was only about 3 ft long.

Nice car. I like the power train choice as well. Different is good and the Ecotec is a rgeat motor. Nice choice on rims too. I have a staggard set of MParallels on my 79TA. I like them so much I'm seriously considering getting a pair of the 9.5" rims to put on the front so that I have the wide rims all the way around.

Here's my TA with the rims on it
