    Haha I can give more ideas, but Ill leave it at that for now before your wife comes after me. I say if you do the 6G74 swap 5spd it and just cruise and enjoy. That would rock with an SC they may make one.

    haha you wont be all show and no go anymore. Although I still think my 2.5 I6 bimmer could out run a galant with a stock 3.5 in it. If not it would be pretty close I think.

    Now if only my Galant could outrun my bimmer like I want it to :(
    I am considering making the Galants engine .1L bigger then the bimmers and some other mods in there too I know this is the expensive route, but its unique too so I may just take it to see what its like to stand out..

    I believe I saw beam dyno and he was at like 160 something on the stock 74. But should feel better now with his 5 speed.

    I think with that bumper you should black out the heads it will look even better.

    I dont really like blacked out heads. Maybe if he got a clean black housing it would look nice.

    Maybe even black housing and projector retro fit but clear glass
