Thanks to all of you, I cannot tell you what it means to me to have this emotional support. I know that sounds silly and all, but I am hurting here and frankly sad about. The whole mess! I was perfectly happy with my 2LT, I ordered it exactly as I wanted it... I didn't ask for this PITA situation, it just manifested itself without warning.

Several of you have made some comments that I didn't think about until I read them, like the scoring on the block from the crank. it's pretty bad, is that normal? I only ran super unleaded, but the heads look very dirty, is this normal? Also, the pistons were just dumped onto the shelf, will they go back in the same way? Will the balance of the engine be affected? Why did they pull the entire drivetrain out when they could have pilled only the cradle out to gain access to the bottom end? It looks like you need to pull the whole thing out now that I think about it, as the drivetrain is placed onto the cradle and lifted into the body, just like we all saw in the NG Ultimate Factories Camaro.

Anyone know I'f the 18" heritage steel wheels fit on the SS? I may need to trade them in then....


Tks all, really appreciate all comments!

Used 75 Camaro = $3500
Rolling restoration over 10 years = $5000
$5 of gas burned in 10 seconds = Priceless!
