If the parts car is cleaner rust wise than your car, swap the inner dash panels (VIN) and use the parts car with your title.
But don't street race..!!??

The srt front looks good on an r/t. And the sleeper looks great (If only I had the dough). Not sure what you swapped but it looks like everything except susp.

Yep everything but struts, ditched srt stockers with spacers for bbs so can use easier to aquire and cheaper to purchase struts.

Also gives more options tire wise.

Not to mention we scored back to back bbs sets...ones no tires are mine. Ill take a shot of his, they are on car now. 260 both sets one set came with tires.

Cant believe people pay retarded money for them. I can find dirt cheap no curb rash.

Took it for a quick test. Vaccum lines are factory setup. Pcm controlled boost. Did a 3rd gear pull from a roll. Pegged 15 psi spun and rear of car wanted to go straight while front wanted to go right of the road so I let off and parked it.

Clutch looks new has a lot of meat but feels a little weak grab wise to me, its a sachs. Maybe im just used to my stage 3 centerforce. Trans has new pivot ball, new oem srt tob, agp forged stainless fork, agp third gear extender. Quite a few mods went in, most were reliabilty items.

shift fork was junk, gaff welded prior had a stock neon tob. Its very possible it damaged clutch or was not broken in properly but at least trans shifts good.
