Started ripping into this 02 intrepid Got the 3.5 high output engine Judging by how the exhaust manifolds come out of the engine it’s going to be easy to put stacks on it.

The A/C unit on the 3.5L can be deleted and the belt taken off. The bottom pulley is just a pulley to keep the belt out of the way it’s not used for anything.

So i tried to move the computer in my 2000 lhs and i can not find a way to do it reasonably or atleast not a way to move the fuse box. Due to the wires in the fender what are the consiquences of cutting them. Like what will need re wired. I am asuming the key (for the computer) and fuel pump which needs its own wirering any way.

To find out the consequence of cutting the wires. Install your fuel system and then hook up your new switch for key then unplug every fuse in your fuse box. If you can do that and the car still runs and starts ect I say just leave the wires in the fender if they get cut or hit in a derby it won’t affect the car. Just my $.02 imo Never done it that way just assuming.

i may have found a round about solution. i am just gonna leave the computer where they usually are difference being not bolted but zip tied and spray foamed so hopefully when they get hit it pushes them in instead of holding them there to get crushed. i have heard of people doing the same thing with radiators, just securing them lightly so that they last longer. also for the longest time i had what i thought was a slight miss didn't feel like a total dead cylinder (it was) but i didn't know the car and it did it since i had it. the second one back on the passenger side injector wire was off just hanging totally out. thing is a completely different car now doesn't shake and revs quick instead of slow. i am honestly surprised how well it ran on 5 cylinders tho

Got my cutless bumper mounted (not yet welded just bolted currently) Before the AC pump delete. After the AC pump delete. Took 24 mins to do the whole job I’ve never seen braided hose used as break line before is this common and I’ve just never noticed or something that’s rare?

Depending on the year you can unplug and move and plug in if it’s newer it’s a lot of wires that will need respliced

Put some stacks on my 2nd Gen intrepid, quit easy actually. Once you make room in the bay for it. Used the stock muffler pipe to. I could use some wrap but since it’s a 1 n done I’m not to worried. Mostly just to get some sick sound coming out of it.
