Brian post up some pictures!

Both of those swaps are really time and $$$$ intensive. But the rewards are well worth it.. Most of us here keep it as close as it can be to original. So we don't have the tips and tricks needed for such a swap.

The guys over at v6/Z24.com have done it countless times and some guys even hand make and sell some of the hardware needed.

Keep us updated as Cody has done with his beast race car.
