Well the front subframe is in and welded, paint is almost finish buffed.......but I woke up yesterday and decided it was a bad move to use the stock sub in my car. So the boys at Prodigy are going to cut it out and the new DSE sub is going in!!

This allows me to run a 275 up front and have a lower ride height than with the two inch drop springs.

Now the problem. I have to buy new headers, widen the front wheels, buy new tires,etc.

So my kick ass Lemons Headers are for sale and my freshly restored front sub tricked out with all DSE's finest is for sale. The pits have been filled and she has a fresh coat of paint. Headers are $1425 shipped and I need to think about the sub.

Sell Rupp the frame for his new car...

I thought you said DSE uses those headers for their builds? Are you sure they won't work?

In the end you know you made the right choice!!

Already tried to sell it to Rupp. Haha Well they have with a stock sub. I called Dan Lemons and he said they will not clear the steering shaft or lower control arm mount. Since they are built to clear the steering gear and now I will have a rack. He has different jigging for the new DSE sub. I plan to call Lemons and DSE in the morning to triple check and place my new order for headers. Lot's of interest in the headers already. They should be sold this week. It's the only major change I have made midstream, so I guess I get one mulligan.

One major change is way under par...certainly you can dream up others!!

One thing getting screwed around by my old builder did was give me plenty of time to plan, research, and plan some more. Interior is about all that is still up in the air. Have seats picked out, my DSE scheme is done and the guages are bought. Steering wheel and column are also bought. Door panels, rear seat, and stereo are the major decisions left. Roll bar is in but needs finished.
