                  Thank you all for the kind words and continued encouragement!

                  I can't wait to play around with the posi next year. The gears are 3.23s, a definite upgrade from the 2.73's or 3.08's I had before. I could have gone with a different gearing, but my plans remain to keep this a V6 car however I am pretty serious about a centrifugal blower and I am told that any steeper gearing would actually have an adverse effect.

                  Next step is to beef up the brakes a bit and then move on to the engine bay and some final paint steps, some tint and I to finish my interior and I think Scarlett will be done. Time to get moving on Betty my '86 Trans am. I have concocted a blueprint for a pretty nasty little small block with the help of a good buddy. Should make 500HP N/A and be beefy enough to handle a huffer.

                  That is until I can conjure up the funding for what I really want, a big block olds or buick.

                      Thread from the dead Wham!

                      Just a heads up. I just ordered my new brakes and wanted to share. They are Brakemotive rotors and Powerstop Evolution ceramic pads. According to what I was reading on LS1tech these are a very good value for the money. I paid ($165 Shipped). They should be arriving within the next week or two just in time for my April 1st deadline. I also have new Russell stainless brake lines to go with my shiny new brakes. I'll be sure to post up some updated pics asap.
