Info on upgrades

I'm thinking about buying the 3.91 gears, ZL1 short throw shifter and also getting my Atak fabricated for quad tips. I live in a bit of a country hick/amish area, east of Harrisburg by about 30 minutes. I'm wondering if any of you have experience with shops nearby that would do all of that in one go, and also how much it would cost. I've heard that the labor for installing 3.91 gears is over 500 dollars, is that accurate?

HA! No, but the mennonites do! I got my headers installed by them. It's a tiny exhaust shop but they're good. Expensive, but real good.

I didn't know it was possible to fab the atak that way. If you manage to get it done lmk how it goes I'd love to get my atak as a quad tip. I like the tips on the atak but the look of the quad.

Oh I'm sure it is, its just a matter of hacking it off and welding new stuff on. What would there be issues with?

Try : http://raceprovenmotorsports.net/ located in New Castle Delaware they did my rear 3.91 install and I also Had BMR Trailing arms and Rear Tie Rods along with Differential Mount bushings and Eaton Detroit Truetrack Differential. The labor was between $6-700 but that was a year ago. Also Delaware has no tax.

Oh I haven't got the slightest idea lol the only issue I can think of is how big the tips are on the atak and whether we would be able to fit two

Oh I'm sure it'd be fine, I already found 2.5 to 4 inch dual tips. There shouldn't be a single issue, but I'll let you know once its done!
