Got the intake on and swapped the sensors on the tb's. Need to torque it down and plug all the wires in. Then I need to get a bolt and do the catch can. I also got to cut the throttle cable bracket down and paint it black. I really don't like the fuel line plumbing so I'm brain storming trying to come up with a better solution. There's to many fittings to get the fuel block on so I can feed the fuel solenoid. Would like to find a -6 180 that I can attach a line to and run it to the solenoid.

Got tires, need rims. Going to get the tool I need here soon to tighten the intake down. I got a feeling the map sensor is going to cause a vaccum leak. The sensor was real loose when I put it on so I put alittle rtv on it to help it seal. Going to chill out on the spending once I get the controller. On my way back from riley I'll get the steering shaft replaced a bushing in the column fixed. I'll also do new bushings in the control arms and do the torque arm relocator. I want to get this thing 100% before I drive it. I'll go out tomorrow and mount the bottle bracket. Might go to wally world and get a cd player installation kit and modify it to hold the gauges.

Just had alot of parts that I bought and never installed and decided to get them put on. Like Karl said, the car is a turd when you consider what is done to it. Put when I did the car the aftermarket was still behind. There was no aftermarket heads, intakes, tb's. There was hooker headers, the ls6 intake, and most cams were custom grinds. Car was has never been down the 1/4, which might be a good thing. Putting a ported 90mm fast, nitrous outlet fbody kit, koni's with hotchkis springs, serviceing the 12 bolt and painting it, got to install a racetronix pump, going to get the torque arm relocater bracket, paint the centers on the rotors, replace bushings in the front control arms, replace the steering shaft, install a linelock, got a 85mm lid and maf, bigger injectors and fuel rails. Need to get a fuel pressure gauge and my nitrous controller. Going to use a progressive controller so I can soften the hit and strain on the stock internals. Might get rid of the duals and go to a 4" mufflex with a single tip. In the end I want a twin turbo motor that will make around 1180 at the wheels. I want to put buses between me and bikes, big bikes. Sorry about the long sentence.

Well, got the 5mm hex head socket that I needed but it's to long. It's 1 7/8" long, needs to be 1 1/2" long to be perfect. Can't find a cheap 1/4" drive set or a 1/4" drive torque wrench either. Might try to seperate the socket, cut it down and join it togather. Craig let me know when you'll be off again so I can make this happen and cut the throttle cable bracket.

Well the socket worked, got it all torque downed. I need to get a shorter fuel line, I'll worry about that when I order the controller. Going to get a bolt tomorrow so I can mount the catch can. I'll probably pick up a small pcv valve as well. I looked at the radiator support and I don't see how there's much to be gained clearance wise trimming it down. Going speed density would make things alot easier. I might be able to use the old flex tube from the truck to join the tb and lid togather.
