Re: Just Another 350 Swap
ya ive talked to a guy he said he will lower it for me and the max he could lower it was 2" and it'll cost under 1000
in the last pic thats with a 2" drop on it. and yes i already have the color i've already sprayed inside the doors and innner fenders the color is viper snakeskin green pearl. normally it comes in i cant remember what they said but some weird paint that only a couple places in town have the equipment to spray it but i got my guy to convert it into a simple base clear paint and it looked amazing on the door jams and inner fenders. it was actually pretty funny cause i was looking at one of my fenders in the sunlight and a guy across the parking lot came over and had to ask what was the deal with the paint cause its pretty crazy. oh and the guy that i get my paint from is from du pont. |

Re: Just Another 350 Swap
uh cant remember the code i'll check it out the next time i got to the shop
found a wicked page on the color tho pretty neato http://forums.viperclub.org/srt10-sr...t-oh-yeah.html and ya the vents are off a trans am i used the T/A factory mounts and everything so the vents look factory on my truck rather than just molding them into the pannel which is much easier but less cool IMO ![]() |

Re: Just Another 350 Swap
DUDE thats RAPE! You could go coilovers (front) for that kind of money. Rear is way simple Springs and blocks or for 2 inches just blocks. Seriously do a search and keep some coinage for other parts of your swap. |

Re: Just Another 350 Swap
I agree. Check with Beltech. They have lowering keys for the tortion bars and blocks for the back. It's a perfectly safe option, fairly easy to do, and should cost MUCH less than 1G.
