Kit #10 has made its way up to Buffalo. I was the replacement for Dan's kit when he needed a stretched version. So here what I have you far (pictures at the bottom). I have the Cobalt Blue city version Goblin. I purchased ($500) a 2008 Cobalt "BLUE" LS with 70,000 miles that car was disassembled in two days and sent to the scrap yard. Seeing that I was going to wait until Adam had both stage 1&2 complete before he shipped it to me. I had sometime so the engine and transmission were completely rebuilt. Engine received a rebuilt head all new bearings, oil, water pump & head and crank bolts. Transmission gearing was changed to the HHR ratio. Also found a ZZPreformance supercharger kit on the local craigslist with only 3000 miles (owner could not get the tune right so removed it) so that was also installed. As for the rest of the parts and pieces. I am going with the Aluminum control arms replaced the knuckles and bearings due to some corrosion along with one of the trany mounts. Electrical what can I say it is not as bad as it looks but it does take some time (I'm sure Adam cringes ever time he sees an email from me) I'll give an update after I install it into the car still have some questions that will only be answered when it is in the car. Everything up to this point in the build has been theoretical (seeing that I didn't have the kit yet). As I begin to bolt it together I will try to post my progress along the way.
