Yeah, unfortunately im letting the bulk of my parts list be my christmas list (which my wife and her family are big on). So i gotta let them get me stuff for christmas, then ill buy the rest on December 26th haha.

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.

So I lied about waiting till christmas. Just placed my order for:

Ls3 Conversion
Lethal Racing Night Fury Cam
Titanium Retainers
ARP cam bolts
Melling oil pump
C5R Timing Chain
Powerbond 25% U/D Pulley
Yank 3200SS Stall Converter
B&M Trans Cooler with fan
Comp Rocker Trunnion Upgrade

Excited!

Haha,

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

[vroomapunk]

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.

can't wait to see those taillights

[SilverSlayer-SS]
