    rear window molding

    Correct me if im wrong, but im pretty sure johns from Temple performance's kit is just a tool to straighten out what most people call the "lasagna" of the gasket which is when the gasket itself geta way appearance to it, to correct the issue you need to find a donor window with a good gasket if...

    cobra swap ?s

    Yes, as far as i know, with the gen 1 you are gonna need to replace your IMRC with gen 2 IMRC im prettyy sure, but instead of dealing with all this if your doing the cobra intake swap, you should already have gears and a nice stall, so if you do i would just buy IMRC delete plates and be done...

    cobra swap ?s

    If you have to ask if you need the upper and lower manifold you probably shouldnt be doing the cobra intake yet, and on a stock or near stock car its gonna kill your bottom end if your car isnt set up for it yet, you need gears and a stall first to really make that intake work its best from what...

    **** it, just drill some holes in the body for weight reduction too, then you can have a "race Car" and you can use them as mounting point for a tool box, Seriously who brought this guy? lol.
