    Trisha bought me these for my birthday

    Planned on originally having Ken installing them today but my ride back from his house was my green camaro and the fuel like ruptured . So these will hopefully be installed within the next two weeks! Excellent quality from Founders

        Finally got some work done on rolo's car. After founders sending us the 2 drivers side LCA's. And dealing with and dealing with Brian at founder we finally got the right parts.

        The mistake founders made. Lol.


        And after fixing rolo's green camaro and getting the new part in.





        And installed a new fuel filter.

        The lesson I learned here is to not deal with Brian at founders, any other shop would have charged for the work done for having to reinstall the factory parts due to there mistake, I didn't. but Brian at founders was very rude to both rolo and I when we called him. In the end all he said is " hey I let him keep the extra part and didn't ask for it back he can sell it or something" the even funnyer part is he sell's the LCA's in pairs. Very poor customer service in my opinion.

          Excellent work as always Ken, I can def. feel an improvement!

          You can tell from the pic I took that I had two identical parts haha. I guess I was to excited to realize.

          Yes he was very rude on the phone. Couldn't believe he wasn't willing to help more due to their mistake.

                Autometer Trans temp gauge/Fuel Pressure/Wideband
                Transcooler
                Window tint
                Replacing misc interior parts (alot of the interior came painted silver, so have been replacing those parts with used parts from the junkyard when I find them)
                Dick Harrell side stripes in Matte black
                Sunoco cowl hood w/ribbed line
                Onyx rear etched Camaro fills in

                Going to try and put away money so I can get a Dr.Phil tune.



                Front bumper,hood,and fenders need to be repainted. Hood/bumper has chips all round, and fenders seem to be a faded black color (can tell difference in sunlight)

                  Good looking list. No need for injectors tho.

                    The injectors is just there to remind me because I always forget. Through out the year I want to try and purchase parts here and there for H/C (this year was a bust so hopefully next year). I dont know why I always forget them, its odd.

                            Your list looks good. This is almost exactly what I did last summer. Are scorpion rockers necessary? Stock/trunion upgrade should be good for that power level. Also, I didn't need bigger injectors.

                              You should be plenty fine with stock injectors. If you're concerned about them, have them cleaned and flow tested.

                                What do you have now 323s? If so I'd do 373s. You wont see much of a change between 323s and 342s.
