I guarantee the second I have all the parts ill be installing them that weekend. Im glad the in-laws want to buy me some stuff, they are really generous. My dad and mom stop buying presents when you graduate high school lol. My wife is on board because she rides horses and just dumped a bunch of money on a saddle, so she has been egging me on. |

No more lying, although it still will probably be december until I have time to actually install everything. Still have a bunch of tools to buy, fluids, clean/prep the garage, etc. Can take a couple weeks for the torque converter to come in. Im just going to come home everyday and look at the pile of parts building up haha |

Got a few parts in today.
Comp Cams trunnion upgrade kit, This turns the stock rockers into captured roller rockers, so if they fail you don't end up with needle bearings going through the engine. Bearings, trunnions, snap rings, bolts, and washers for pressing in the new bearings. Spring compressor tool, this thing is really thick/heavy. From ebay, cheap at 35$ compared to the 100-130 dollar tools others make. DIY afterburner inserts for the taillights. Last edited by vroomapunk; 10-06-2013 at 10:02 AM. |

Should sound amazing, I love that color though I may be partial to dark reds.
