eeekroar Posted March 19, 2011 Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 (edited) Not cheap. My guess is around 8 grand.Depending on how much you want to put into tranny, headers, etc. You could probably do it a lot cheaper if you get most of the parts used.

eeekroar Posted March 19, 2011 Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 Guess I need to buy a DD befor I start doing this lol Yeah. You will be creating a gas sipper to say the least.I would defiantly wait around on a used kit before I bought a new one. That's just my opinion. I'm sure some of the guys on here with lighting eating monsters can help you out along the way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
