The rest of the dash first of all.....and a LOT of rewiring.


Basically, if you have to ask, you can't do it

It's a huge butchering mess really....nothing fits right...NOTHING. You have to remove parts of the new dash because they come out a bit farther...also i'm not sure but i think i remember the heater core being in a different spot on '83s.

ryan seems to like to do pointless mods jus for the sake of having a nice pain in his ass, because someones willing to sell him their junk in exchange for his allowance. save up your pennies and get your first set of gt40 heads ryan and teach yourself how to do a head swap. thatll benefit you way more. but suit urself. i give the kid major props if he pulls it off and it comes out clean.

Yea - I think the same way too, but every time I buy a lottery ticket, the damn person behind the counter always sells me a defective ticket! For once, I would like to buy a ticket that actually works!

i got an idea. lets all take a vacation to watch him attempt the install. well buy 4 kegs and get drunk watching him say words thatll get him grounded trying to make it work. if he pulls it off he gets his first beer from his older brothers.

i have to admit as much as we break his balls he seems way more handy then most 14 yr olds i know. let him eff around with this stuff all he wants, better a pointless cluster swap then drugs.

i like the kid, he digs in on his car. thats admirable. i bust on him cause thats what older guys are supposed to do with teenagers. i went through it, im better for it. the questions and statements he asked are jus too good to not jump on him for lol
