                I'm not very fond of 2nd gens...............at all, but I do like yours, and you're doing the right thing under the hood.

                The block looks good, but I would've sandblasted that MBSP and made it match.

                  good luck, always nice to see a fellow 2nd gen'r fixing up his ride.

                  so do you have all the wiring figured out?

                  document all the steps so maybe you can help me out when i decide to do a swap.
