Interesting read.....Think I'll start saving up the 20K for a Hotchkis setup....tomorrow.

The Hotchkis parts don't run $20k, only a couple of grand, then add brakes for a couple more grand and wheels/tires, if need be engine work, etc. $20k seems a bit high to me.

I only paid $2500 for the complete Hotchkis system with shocks! The front and rear disc kit from Dr diff was aboot $1300 and new torsion bars and seals $250!

AJ I would love to go for a ride in your car after you get it all installed to see how the car handles.

i thought that it was comical that you could get a SRT-8 and a T/A with the hotchkis kit for the same price. I could have sworn that T/A challengers were....how you say....MORE.

I promise that once either one of the cars are done You & mike (Topcat) will be the first people I call!  I'm hoping to have them both "drivable" for the ohlone show.

I am starting to strip the 70 this weekend and once I get it to the paint shop I'm going to start installing the hotchkis kit on the 73.

I's only echoing what the article (below) says.....I'm sure your right

"We'd guess another $20,000 would easily get you every performance part showcased by the Hotchkis E-Max Challenger."

Sweet thanks. If you need any help let me know.

I know, they are probably also assuming paying a shop a ton of money to install everything.
