This is also the same reason why using the grommet where all the wires enter the cabin as a way to hook up gauges are a bad idea. The grommet will be worthless and leak water into the cabin unless it is sealed off again with some sort of sealant.

Damn I'll have to check mine then

Yea I believe the kit is around the same price as the 350 kit.. The basic doesn't come with the long tube headers I believe

Real good rust treatment system is POR-15

edk370 · 08-21-2015, 01:16 PM

I can't wait until all the bugs are worked out of this kit. I want an FD3S with an LS swap, but I'd rather use a newer chassis. They're both awesome!
