oh sweet deal. they seem to fit in there just right good improvement over the stock buckets? my other option is trying to get the recaro cobra R's from FRPP. the part # is M-16620-C but i haven't called for price or even if they are still available... :S
btw tony.. do you still have that 7.5" tloc sitting around? if you do i wouldn't mind paying to take it off your hands. i dont feel like paying $800 for the only used IRS in the area and i'm going to wait on the 8.8"..

lol yea it is, it's the same stuff the GT intake's are made from. aparently they can take some major abuse tho. two 3.8's are either running a vortech/procharger on it. one was at 10-12psi if i remember correctly. crazy really.
i also might get my brother to make a kinda cover like the 3v 4.6's have. just to fit inbetween the runners. and i also have new BFG's coming in tomorrow too. so i might hold off on the windstar for another couple weeks. or at least till the snow comes down the vally...

You have to use the wiring and rails from the original seats, including the seat controls at the seat front, but it is a great mod. Sorry a fellow local club member is enjoying my old 7.5.
