I am looking into anything around 5k. Don't think I could get a crate motor... I may be able to build one myself.

Fiero=driver car=MPG's

What motor?

Jack stands aren't too bad. My fiero sits on 2x4's and one 4x4....

My only thing is my car is a Tenth Anniversary Trans Am, but without the original motor I don't think it makes sense to keep it stock minus that.

To make my mom happy. I told her I can control the sound and it was only loud because I pushed a button.

I told my dad I want it louder.

Yeah. I was loading up the car and I started her and we were trying to talk over Jewel. She wanted to get the last word in.
