After a long patient wait Jarhead 2m4 finally got his car back from getting a 3800SC/65E swapped in. I picked the car up some time back from another local ans slowly got the swap done. I did not do a complete build thread on the car but have a few pictures of the finished swap. Stock swap pretty much plus a 3.4 pulley, ZZP rails and a N* TB. Put about 500 miles on the car before it left to go home today. The car will get full Held suspension and brake upgrade in the future.
Wanna thank Jarhead 2m4 for being very patient with me waiting on the car cause I took forever on his swap.

Nice!
Somehow there is another thread in GFC that looks just like this one but is not this one that I responded to...very strange.
https://www.fiero.nl/forum/Forum1/HTML/092392.html Anyhow, it looks really nice. One of these days I need that done to my car.

Saw this car in person on Saturday. Fantastic work and extremely clean car. I have a feeling the new owner enjoyed the drive back to Houston.

...I wouldn't say FOREVER and the owners are usually ecstatic, euphoric and elated all rolled up in one.
