Well guys it’s been a while since I’ve posted in here, a lot has happened with the car since the last update. I’ve rebuilt the 4l65e with some goodies, and slapped a 2800 stall ,
Got new seats and installed a slim sub, I’ve also installed all the door panels and somewhat finished the interior...
Thank you. I have 20 on the car and I admit I was really nervous on how the car would turn out but I like it, the ride isn’t harsh and I get no tire rub at all, I am running a tiny bit of camber just to prevent the bolts on the fenders from rubbing. I currently have cpp rear leaf springs with...
It’s all going well, life’s been throwing a couple curveballs but I haven’t struck out haha. I just updated the buildthread. It might be out of order since I’m playing catch-up now.
And here is where I am currently. Building the cowl hood as I got tired of people walking up to my car leaning into it and tinkering with my engine bay I decided to put it back in the garage and start working on the hood, unfortunately the high rise has a peak height where the curvature of the...
Yes these are cheap upper control arms from summit but I couldn’t get anything sooner at the time and my stock ones were so bent i didn’t feel safe. (At least it’s what my wife believed)
Here at the alignment shop I noticed I ripped the rear sway at bolt on the left. Had to replace that, and...
This was the very first time I took the car around town, (to the muffler shop) since the dumped glass packs under the rear seats weren’t doing much for me. I tried making my own exhaust (I’ll post that later) but was just wayyyy too loud. Being in California it’s not wise to drive around that...
Little did I know! Holley hi ram intakes/fuel rails don’t work with gen4 flex fuel injectors. I was certainly not going to get new Holley injectors after buying all this I figured I had to get a little innovative.
I did forget the dimensions but I made a spacer and tapped it to bolt the fuel...
Anddddd here’s where the build got interesting, I blew the budget out of frustration and not having time to mess with the wiring I ended pulling the trigger on the Holley terminatorX Max and I gotta day it was WELL WORTH IT!!! literally plug and play.
By blowing the budget I meant I got carried...
Needles to say guys I went with the CPP big brake kit as I was in a budget however it has since then been worth it. And it was suck an easy install. I’m
And with that being said, big brakes required bigger wheels and tires. Since I’ve been on a tight budget for what I’ve wanted to do I went...
Hey guys I know it’s been almost a year, I’ve been so buisy BUT! that didn’t stop me from working on the car I just didn’t post as much. Well good news anyway is I did do a lot into getting this car closer to Finnish, it’s been one hell of a year.
Here I made brackets to hold my ls1 fans from...

Congrats on the new project! It looks like a handful but it’s not impossible and they’ll always be a money pit regardless of the starting point but what kept me going was that I had an ugly big bumper and always wished I had a 70-73 not caring the condition it would have been in. If you can keep...
Not sure my camera got the texture on the wheel Verry good, but I’m happy with the way these turned out, now I’m just gonna save up for the stainless brushed trim rings
After 2 light textured coats 3 color coats And all sealed up in 3coats of flat clear they came out pretty solid.
Didn’t get much done today just a couple of small things, did manage to strip the g braces.
As someone who loves spray painting I think they came out pretty good!
After doing a bit of scanning through I decided to try something out, I noticed a lot of old school mags had the cast...
thank you, every chance you get is a step closer just take it one thing at a time, with winter around the corner im sure your car will start to come together ;)
