Hello, my name is Chris. I just purchased a black 73 st. It has an 18rc engine with a big hole in the block. I have made my mind up and want to do the 22r swap. I will start a build thread asap. I hope to have the car driveable by the middle of next month.

I am in Lake Elsinore CA. I am trying to find more info regarding what is needed for the swap to a 20/22r. I just purchased rims yesterday and am starting to build my coilovers.

Welcome, I have a bookmark folder full of topics that I routinely return to to consult, I actually read almost every single page on this site and there is no doubt a huge amount of info if you take the time to find it!
