Man a pool woule have been nice today. It was hot as hell at Mid-Ohio but a GREAT day. Got to see some really cool Grand-Am series cars.

I will stop by the shop Monday. I want to ask you something anyhow. I want to get that H pipe out and put in a X... A cat back is out of the question right now... we have a horse that may need to have its eye removed... all in one and I decided today, I am starting back to work on the 67 Camaro. Less Camaro5 and facebook, more progress. I am tired of looking at a pile of parts in my basement. I am just going to work on it in my 2.5 car attached garage, screw the Honda. I am actually going to go and start sorting parts this weekend. Oh and be prepared, you have to get it running!

anyhow... X pipe... I figure I have 3 options: A.) non resonated Magnaflow tru-x with stock resonators -or- B.) a resonated magnaflow X and remove the stock resonators -or- C.) non resonated magnaflow tru-x without any resonators... I feel C will be too loud with the pass through type muffler the OEM systems has... I recall my dad's car with the Pypes... I feel A would be the easiest and cheapest BUT I feel B would give the best sound... I love the way the car sounds now with the exeption of some popping... and its not the decell popping, it does that too, but I am fine with that. Once in a while, if the stars align just right and earth spinning at the correct rotaional inertia, it will let out one hell of a pop or two... RPM around 3 to 4K, car in lower gear, off the gas for about 5 seconds, RPM coming down, car slowing down then POP POP...

Other then that I am loving the sound!

BTW... I was at KMart on Friday and there was a car there just like Drews (at first glance)... anyhow this guy comes up to me and says "is this your car" I say... "no its hers <points to Lisa>" So he says "is this that real wild sounding one that was here a few weeks ago? I really loved that car and wanted to hear it again!" So I had to reply "No, sorry he's not here this week!" EVERYONE loves Drew's car. It is probably the BEST sounding Camaro I have ever heard...

I haven't yet seen a grill that really makes me want to get it. I like aspects of the heritage grill, but not well enough to buy it. I have seen pictures of it where the part over the parking lights is left unpainted and I like that look better than when the whole thing is painted the body color. I'm going to wait a while on that because I'm getting my brakes done in about 2 weeks (new rotors, painted calipers, and stainless brake lines), and then I'm saving toward a Maggie and maybe a cam. (I'm not sure about the cam). I also am thinking about a new hood. Time will tell.
We are back, it was an AMAZING turn out but not too good for our group. the lot was 100% full! JEWL got yelled at AGAIN for saving spots. 2 weeks running! You need to come down sometime.

country... HERITAGE, hands down.
