So I got the interior wiring harness off Ebay- how fun this is going to be! Ha!.. and I am ordering new carpet for the inside of the car too- since someone decided to spill a large Burger King cup of coke all over the passenger floor.... and I got the heat/ac ducts for the dash, and also I bought the whole drop-in for the fuel tank. I found one offan SRT-4 off Ebay for like 30 bucks or so. What are your guy's thoughts on this? The whole assembly fits into the stock R/T tank, and the wiring harness I have will wire right up to it since its an SRT-4 harness (I think the SRT-4 harness would wire up to the R/T fuel assembly though) The assembly says "Walbro" on it, which I assume is the fuel pump, and the top (outside) it says "58" which I am assuming to be the stock FPR, since SRT-4's run 58psi. Think it'll work? If not, I have an FPR I bought off Ebay sitting here and the external Walboro fuel pump from the other car if all else fails. I am hoping to get the majority of the wiring done this week, but I do have homework to do too >.<. I also took apart the hubs on the R/T, and come to find out my passenger side wheel bearings were *WAY BAD*... I am going to replace them with the SRT-4 hubs, brakes and all that good stuff, and hopefully find a way to put the SRT-4 brakes on the back too without having to change out the strut/shock, since i have to change the strut tower in the front to change the hub. Anyways, there are my random thoughts and updates on the situation, feedback is welcome!

Y'know, I've seen that website before.. lol... What'd you do about the tranny mount? I was told if I were to gut out the insides and flip the metal peice inside 180 degrees and refill the mount it should work. Suggestions?

Also, any suggestions about the K-frame- tips or guides?- and how to get that bad boy in there right the first time!

And a curiosity question... did you drop the Neon body onto the engine? It looks like you never seperatedany of the parts!
