If you want quality but are on a tight budget then coilovers ate out of the picture.

Ive seen you on the form before, thank you for answering! I have a question about your swapped car. how hard was the swab and how much power does the engine make? is it turbo'd?

It probably makes around mid 130's to low 140's whp. I've never dyno'd it, that is based off of my best guess relative to Tom Armstrong's set up that he dyno'd.

It is not turbo'd and never will be, I want to keep it reliable for the track.

The swap is probably as "easy" as it gets for putting a different engine in a car. That said it's all relative to your skillset, experience and tools. No matter what there will always be issues and troubleshooting you need to do. In my case I had to find a shorter axle as I had axle being issues that no one else seemed to have.
