 The easiest option right now is to just get the car back to OEM spec. The current suspension dampers are absolutely fucked. Springs are probably okay.

 I need to reestablish what wheels and tires are on the z right now, and figure out a more sustainable space solution. One thing that needs done is that longer wheel studs need put on the car.

 The old VG30e engine is out of the z, along with the transmission and 3/4 of the exhaust. Right now, i have the new engine mounts, and that's about it. This swap will be a big deal for this car, and hopefully it won't take too long to really get done. First, let's outline the goals and scope of this build.
 
 ## Goals
-1. Get a Gen III or Gen IV small block Chevy engine in the Z's chassis, prefferably a 5.3L or even 4.8L. No need to over due power. This engine will be sourced from a junkyard.

 2. Find a matching transmission to pair with the LS engine
 3. Reuse stock differential and rear end. Custom driveshaft will be required
 4. Keep current electrical harness for car cabin
