Well I still have my SVT suspension sitting in my garage and now I've just stacked on top of it the SVT header/cat/flex and I'm looking for someone to help me put it in, aka put it in while I watch.

I'd be willing to buy food/drink whatever else needed to do it, I just know my header is gunna be a bitch to get out because it's an 01 with rusted bolts and my suspension is the original so yeah.

Slower than your stock focus.

I have a 2 ton jack and 2 jackstands if that helps, I don't need it done right away, I'd just like to be able to get it done before the summer.

yeah I can wait a couple weeks, no problems there, the hard part is my lack of cars prevents me from being too much help, I've done some bolt ons but these are not something I want to screw up being that my focus is my daily driver.

Just let me know when/where and I'll show up, and hopefully Steve got me all the right parts to make the svt setup work.

Hey Nick, you got the picture I printed out with the parts correct? You should be able to lay the stuff out to kind of mock up the system to see if it all looks right.

Keep in mind that any time you do something like this there is always the possibility of something strange happening so you may want to check around a bit to line up a possible loaner car if it does not all go according to plan.

If you can't find anywhere to do it I may be able to help, I have a semi heated very crowded garage but I do have all the tools needed.
