All I really need to explain is that I had a 13btt in a car that weight a little under 1200 lbs with me

hah i thought that engine looked a lil wierd
i wanted to use a chrysler 2.4 upped past srt4 specs and mated to a supra r154 tranny via a dakota ax15 bellhousing. actually i originally intended to drop that setup in a 60's era val or cuda A-body. but money and garage space never really allowed for it. i'll prob still build the motor but instead of converting it for rwd use i'll just mate it to one of my A555 trannys and drop it in my shelby.
the thought of having 500 ponies ripping the front wheels loose at highway speeds makes me feel silly
