Well, I finally made my order in late Feb. and I just secured my donor so I thought it was time for a build thread.
I've been on this forum a while. I bought an SS/TC donor from copart that was there for mechanical reasons back in Oct. 17. I replaced a bunch of parts and set the timing and it ran like a champ. I saw an opportunity to sell it for a good profit so thats what I did (Dec. 17). A few months later I visited Red Oak and met their team. I decided I'd only live once and figured the Goblin build would be a learning exp.
My donor is a 2007 SS/SC. It has 73k, no CEL, and a few aftermarket parts.
I don't have a ton of free time so I'd bet this build is going to take me a while and I am sure I'll have plenty of questions.
The first being...how long did it take you to rip apart the donor? and did you throw away the majority of the parts that you didn't use and are not worth much? I will prob be doing a lot of this by myself and I've got a smaller garage so I cant really just let it sit in there so I want to get it done. I hate to have a wrecked car sitting outside my house half torn apart.
