I've been doing research and making phone calls. I'm starting to find a direction with my plans. Hopefully I can make some decisions and start collecting parts in the spring. My goal is to have everything in hand and start building in the fall...

Springs showed up Monday and I'm waiting on the upper mounts. That'll be it for suspension parts and I'll hopefully get the stuff installed in the next month or so.
I'm pretty much set on doing some BTR prepped TFS heads, BTR spec cam and an MSD manifold with all the associated goodies. I'll also throw in an Improved Racing oil pan baffle and a crank scraper. I hope to get that all done in the fall by the end of the year latest. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

I also changed my Billet Bowties to the flat black inserts to the stock emblems I like the look better.
The billet bowties are for sale here... http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=393774 Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

Do you have the Magnaflow resonated x pipes with NPP? Any chance you have a sound clip?

I do have the X, but no sound clip. I've been needing to do that. If I get a chance and think of it this weekend I'll do one.

The suspension parts install is waiting to hear what Pete from JPSS says as far as pricing on his new Knuckle Drop set up. After hearing about this I feel like I need to see if the price is feasible to get my drop instead of springs.

So far my car is allright... I'd call it a 6 or 7 mod wise. Getting ready to take it to a 10. If I get crazy I'll go TT and make it an 11. LOL

I just got the first of my parts for the Cam, heads, intake, TB swap...
I scored a BBK 102mm TB (lightly used) for $250 + shipping. I looked it over and it seems good enough to me but at a little more than half the list of a new one and definitely half the cost of a Nick White 102mm I'll take the chance. Now to wait for the MSD manifold to come out and get my hands on the heads and manifold worked and matched by Tooley. On the suspension front I have all the parts to do the job but I'm still wanting to see what happens with the JPSS Knuckle Drop. If those are priced within a certain range I'll do those instead of springs. So I'm in a holding pattern for two parts on both phases of my project. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk
