    I'll message you. I don't have too much education on suspension geometry, but I know a little and have an unbearable passion for these cars and what they're capable of. Where can I see footage or pictures of that cats ride! $3000 doesn't actually sound bad at all. I thought for something like that 10k min. I'll have to look into it. Thanks for info man!!

    hope you got a big bank roll with all these mods you are planning. there is nothing inexpensive on these cars to modify. mod motors are expensive too to get power. most of here will not spend $3-4 k for shocks. the jri shocks are $8k

    Over time. This all isn't gonna be over night or anything close. Just getting an idea of how far people are taking these cars and what I want to do to mine. The suspension mods up until coil overs are quite cheap I think. An Eaton swap, if planned right won't be over 3-4k. I'm not looking to be one of the top Marauder's in the community, I just want a supercharged Marauder that handles up to my expectations and limits. To be honest, I'd go all out on suspension mods before I even get to the Eaton, probably. I want the suspension to out perform everything.

    No problem..glad to see you have some reality as some folks come and go that don't. Don't forget to add install and dyno tune for Eaton swap..another $1200-1500 or so, less if you can install it and trailer it to a dyno worthy of tuning it.

    I've been talking with Marty O, the man, on Facebook about it. I can do the install, I'm not too worried about it. I have experience with engines, I helped put the Procharger on my 1st P-71 and rebuilt the 390 in my 67 Galaxie. This is just my 1st Marauder. The only thing I'm probably gonna have Marty do is the wiring and plumbing. I can do and understand engines just fine until the wiring and some plumbing comes along, haha. Also, he'll be dynoing and tuning it for me. That's where most of my money will be going on the sawp. Marty picking up the pieces, haha. Yeah, I have hella reality when it comes to cars, but also illusions of granger, haha. I've had many projects in the past, but giving it all up for these Marauder's!

    Actually, they are both a phrase. Also, I spelled it wrong. It's grandeur, not granger, lol
