[ITSSLOW]

Just read this thread for the first time. Kyle, you do some amazing work! Red, you do some great parts ordering!

[Phantom409]

Thanks!

Those are clips in the center.
I replaced them so that if she would ever have to replace her fog lights she wouldn't have to go through a wiring nightmare.

No work done today
I had family stuff

Tomorrow, a big list!
Front sway bar & End Links
Run wires for cut outs
Run wires for gauges
Attach wheels and make sure the break lines are clear
Redo wire loom on the harness
Remove the old rag joint and paint shaft

I'll start assembly on the motor on Saturday

[Phantom409]

Got all I wanted to do and a little more.

I need to buy a step drill so I can run the cut-out wires and the gauge wires.

Plans for tomorrow are:
Paint block
Finish last touches on harness
Finalize the spot I think the cut-out harness will work.
Start on water pump

Red is working on pics

This website is so ssssslllllloooooooooowwwwwwwwww tonight I'll put the pics up tomorrow. In the mean time, there was more cash flow today. I purchased an intake elbow, rag joint eliminator, air dam, and some chips (not Doritos).

Should have the valve covers today and the air dam has already shipped. Those guys are fast.

Half of the pics from yesterday. Will post up the rest later today. Must run!

[98blackbeauty]

Lookin good, looks like you'll be running very soon from your "Pitcrew Extrodonair" statement.

[Phantom409]

Ya I hope so

I hope it's running by mid week next week or by the weekend but time will tell.

That's crazy how fast you're working, Kyle.

Where did you get those tie downs for the brake lines with the rubber? Looks really good.

Also, by chance, did you do poly kit for the rear sway bar yet? I'm really curious if anyone else has the same issues we did trying to use those energy suspension links for the rear sway bar... the bolt was just way too damn short for us.

[Phantom409]

No, we are not doing rear end links.
Just rear shocks.

Don't know what happened with yours but I use ES all the time and have no issues.

[Phantom409]

I got the clamps at a auto parts store over here called Grand Surplus & Sales.

I could go broke in that place, they have EVERYTHING that you need including odd stuff
