This is a naturally aspirated auto car. Standard length full cage. Donor had 119k . Paid more for the kit then I'm asking for the completed vehical. Registered in Colorado with clean title!!
Needs an alignment still and the rear calipers drag sometimes. I have put less than 100 miles on it since completed. No time to drive it and I live on a dirt road so it's not a the car for me.

As a side note for it's next owner. I am researching how to manual an automatic car. So far it seems a little wire rerouting in the engine harness(manual reverse light switch and speed sensor are on the drivers side top of the trans.) and cutting out and discarding a whole bunch of wires out of the engine harness that goes to the TCM. (Purchasing another manual donor is a reasonable idea that would save the engine harness rework and the likely-hood of having to reflash the BCM, though I've not determined that is needed.) A manual donor would provide lots of small parts like clutch pedal and hanger, switches and oem shifter, trans, flywheel and half shafts. Minimal main harness rework, I believe you just abandon the Neutral start wiring by the Auto shifter(as chevy did originally. The neutral safety switch wires, both man and auto connectors are in all interior harnesses but unused ones are cut away when reworking the harnesses.) and add 3 wires and a connector from the BCM to the clutch pedal. Use the manual BCM.

I tried to make all this sound enticing! If you've done Goblin wiring from end to end, I believe I can help you make this swap. It will look pretty easy. To everybody else it looks like a bad scene purposely left out of the movie Aliens because it was too scary!

Markim, My guess is that most folks, when starting the re-wiring, they can't even imagine the finish line! I tell folks, remember anything you cut out can be soldered back in! ****(off topic)**** I wonder how much the wiring that is pulled out of the original harness weighs? A Goblin generally weighs JUST HALF of it's donor curb weight(or less!), 1500#-1600# when finished. Every pound adds up! I'd bet the automatic trans wiring, when pulled out of the engine harness, weighs ~ 5#.
