In the real world best to be a worker bee anymore. Keep your head down below the cubby walls. Get promoted just means they'll get rid of you earlier for failure to do something they want you didnt know about..lol!

Well, I may be in jeopardy of getting fired then. I didn't do the thing that I didn't know they wanted done in the first place. LoL

That looks good. I would look in the GMPartsDirect...It's a GM licensed part, so they should have it also...

They got a couple of items that kinda cool, that switch place is cool if you had a need for that many switches and the engine covers are cool.. but they are a bit on the high side of the price..

Nice touch....

Yeah, what I would want out of a throttle body is one that's either polished or chromed on the outside....ported, tuned or whatever would be ok....lol

They are the ported ones. more throttle response, reduces off idle bog and all. No lousy instructions on this one! If you wanted polished they can do. Painted is 50 more but I will prime and paint red and Tracy says will be fine.

Looked at Tracy's web-site...didn't see any mention of polished ones...

Is that something he does?...Not even sure if they are polishable...

I have heard micro fiber towels, I think the signed one is a picture of the Camaro. Not sure what else.
