I fear my car won't be quite ready. It looked like a bomb went off when I saw it yesterday. However, my cam is in. See?

If you look carefully, you'll see my radiator, maggie, and headers in the background.

I asked about that. They said it looks perfectly normal and there are no problems.

My new heads are very shiny though!

They're porting and polishing the throttle body too so it will match the maggie better.

You have too much disposable income.

I prefer to think that I work very hard and have my spending priorities in the correct order.

You should see all the stuff I wanted to get, but had to cut out due to budget.

There is always next year.

Like coilovers.

Darth_Emma · 04-13-2011, 12:23 PM

Coilovers, forged internals, engine mounts, new axles and driveshaft, rear lower control arms, drag radials,... it goes on and on...

Then there is that 427 twin turbo set up I thought about... I can dream.

But, I'm pretty excited to hear it with the new cam.

well that just sounds like a reason for a tranny upgrade to me...LOL

It's not a tough upgrade... Just not sure it's worth it.
