Winter Progress

[99TransAmWS6]

Sweet! Looks like some fun installs there. I myself am just gonna step up to a nice cam..heads are just to frickin expensive right now! So she'll be a full bolt on-cammed, nitrous car....I think were both gonna lack in the 10-bolt department lol..but i might up to a 12 still.

[SS4Matt]

yeah my 10 bolt is the weakest link in my car... it just blew in the fall... i got the 3.73 SLP ring and pinion...and their install kit. im just waiting for this to go...then i'll step it up to a moser...but at the time i didn't have the money so i just rebuilt what i had

[DETROITMUSCLE]

Opps I meant head bolts I'm reusing all the stock header shit. Yeah once everything is said and done I'm hoping for a huge difference that'll keep me occupied long enough to save up for a 12 bolt then a built tranny as well.

[SS4Matt]

Yeah D&D did a number on my trans!!!.... they are like #1 T56 trans people around..... and they are only like 15 minutes from my house!....and yeah 12 bolt will probably be after some spray lol...when this one stops it's tour of duty again lol

[DETROITMUSCLE]

I have started the install and mostly its very slow progress but hes where I'm at so far.

Notice a difference

[SS4Matt]

damn... you shoulda cleaned that motor before you started..... i am thinking about the FAST 90/90 setup too if i do a wet shot of spray...that 90mm TB is so huge...does the normal intake bellow still fit on it? or do you have to buy something new to slip over that bohemeth?? well either way. that's cool. im goin out to Ortonville tomarrow to pick up all that random stuff you need. hopefully he'll have it all "in stock" lol...he literally has 2 barns filled with parts like brand new shit. but so far....
water pump gasket (the new ones are metal with rubber o-ring, so they're re-usable unlike those paper ones that are a ***** to scrape off without boogering up the aluminum
Valve covers
coil brackets
PCV hose
Oil Fill spout...and a vette [mobile 1] cap! lol
then i'll grab the little fuel line puller thing i got. i took next saturday off to. that's the weekend after superbowl...is it still a go for a weekend of thrashing?
I can't wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[meissen]

looks good so far, Jeff

[greenmachine]

wow man you should have sprayed that baby off lol, i would cry if my car was torn apart like that.

oh and you should fix that little bit of rust that is starting up in the front before it gets worse

[DETROITMUSCLE]

Yes the engine compartment has many blemishes and in all needs a through cleaning but that will come after the install to clean off all the fluids I spilled all over lol. I plan on repainting the wntire bay once I get my new motor so it'll probably look like crap until then unless I pull a meissein.

[93formulalt1]

"Pull a Meissen" HAHAHA! That's a good one! What's that, take months to do appearance mods? Or spend 5 weeks claybarring, polishing, and waxing your car!? j/k lol

[DETROITMUSCLE]

Oh yeah to answer your question Matt I have to go by a piece of 3 to 4 fernco, I've been told that is the best. I just see no need to upgrade to 85mm MAF and lid right now seeing as changing MAFs usually causes more problems so we'll see how it goes.

[PewterTA]

Sounding Good Man. Once you get it all done you gotta stop by and let me check it out

[DETROITMUSCLE]

Yeah Its getting insure for the following week so I'll make it a point to bring it by. I can't wait to be tearin up the streets again, I need to get some DRs for sure because this ***** wont hook at all after.

[SS4Matt]

Yeah traction will be your newest problem with all those parts...oh and guess what i got you today jeff????? i'll give you one guess..... it's all random little shit you need lol....i'll check on a waterpump for you. im not sure he carries those though? but i can call him and find out

[DETROITMUSCLE]

Thanks Matt you have no idea how much I appreciate it.
