I'll just say I'm glad I've got a great vendor right here in town that I can just swing over to and pick stuff up.

Oh yeah, thanks for the write up Krackazz, it's helpful for this newbie.

i been knockin out some stuff on this list.

did shifter base bushings, shifter and shift cable bushings, and wow. so much more precise, no more slop, and it is smoother and is overall tigher all around. need front motor mount now lol

one thing i did have to do that wasnt talked about in the shifter install threads was cutting the shifter mount. under the shifter box, where the shift mechanism attaches to the frame of the car is a plate that sits there, i had to notch out a square so that the shifter would be able to get into all the gears. without doing this the shift cable hits that part of the car.

anyone else have this problem?

great list otherwise, clutch lines are next!

That is normal, we also had to do that. I believe it was mentioned/discussed in the linked threads, but if it was not I apologize and will be sure to go back and edit as needed!
