Default New member with a new Notch!

I have been looking for a clean, low mile Notch for quite awhile now that the seller didn't want a mountain of money for. After searching around quite a bit I ended up finding one just about 10 minutes from my house. It's a White '91 with grey interior. It's in great shape, 77k miles, and has a few bolt ons. It's good to be back in a 5.0 having sold my '92 Hatch 6 years ago. It needs to have the battery returned to under the hood due to a lame attempt at a relocation to the back seat. It also needs a fan and fan shroud or electric fan. It also has a small leak from the tranny near the bellhousing.

Mods (all have less than 1k miles)

BBK fenderwell intake
BBK UDP's
Complete Energy Suspension bushing kit
Energy Suspension poly motor mounts
Eibach pro kit
KYB shocks and struts
BBK shorties
BBK catted X pipe
Pypes stainless cat-back
FRPP Clutch and aluminum flywheel

I plan on adding some MM FLSFC's, 3.73's, Pro 5.0 short shifter, and a 5 lug conversion to start with.




Here are a few pics. Forgive the crappy pics. I took these right as I got home today. Oh and one of my "non-5.0" car.

Thanks I will post pics and a mod list. It sure is different to go back to an N/A car when you get used to having boost. Especially with the stock gears. lol Those things need to go!
