Rice Burner gets a Transplant
Ever wonder if it's possible to re-create what Carroll Shelby did in 1963? Perhaps it is! Just add en E-Rod LS3 & T56 6 speed to somebody's unloved and worn out rice burner!

Re: Rice Burner gets a Transplant
Nice! I have a 95 with a seized water pump that I glare at every time I walk by it. Maybe it needs something similar.
The stock diff won't like it, though ... -Steve
