Did an oil and filter change. Took it for a spin, and left a little bit of the new tires out on the road.

Set up an appointment today to have the tint redone on the car Wednesday. The original owner put on some cheap crap thats faded and bubbling. Also ordered a new radiator cap since the old ones lettering has all faded off.

Finally got my ECM back from Frost, so with new headers, ORY, Motor Mounts, Tranny Mount, and EGR Delete done, I slapped (carefully) the ECM back in and fired her up, sounds good. I took her for a quick drive after making sure nothing was burning or loose, she feels strong, but I still need to get her to an exhaust shop to tighten up the ORY and get it tucked up a little more. Can't wait

I just mailed mine out yesterday for the new motor. He's got some time, so I'm not going to rush him.

Hard to not do that, eh? I've had the same "problem" all my life, leaving some rubber here and there....

And with the new rear, there's no worries about leaving more than rubber on the road.

Now to get the exhaust welded up......

Yup. And I have 4 free tires on my car, off a '96? 'vette. Same size as ours, 275/40/17s. Goodyear GS-Cs, they have about 8,000 miles lightly driven on them, he wanted new tires since they were made in 1996. I will have no problem wearing them down the next 20k or so LOL.

**sok915** · 05-17-2011, 04:35 PM

I finally ordered my MGW shifter

**INMY01TA** · 05-17-2011, 04:56 PM

Walked by mine to get the broom on the other side of the garage.

**pajeff02** · 05-17-2011, 05:35 PM

Installed the new SFI flex plate with ARP bolts, flushed the transmission cooler and lines, and leak tested the tailstock to no avail.

**raynor139** · 05-18-2011, 06:35 AM

Getting windows tinted as we speak. Pictures coming soon.

Nice, When I worked at the Chevy dealership I would snag those GS-C take offs for my '87 TA all the time, 5 years never bought that car tires, they are like rocks in cold weather tho.

**Knight** · 05-18-2011, 03:48 PM

Just finished welding the exhaust on the T/A. Now, if it ever stops raining....it's time to do the spring detailing.....

**az gt eater** · 05-18-2011, 05:54 PM

Finally did the wire hide mod. And rewired the amp. I found out that the wire that was in there was 6 inches short of the battery when i rerouted under the wheelwell. Oh, well, at least I already had the wire waiting.

**ls1camino** · 05-20-2011, 07:59 PM

Got the 335s on 17"x13" ZR1s on the car today. I still have a lot of grinding, cutting and BFH'ing till I get the inner fenders safely away from the tires.

Teaser Pics (I'll make a thread when I'm done):

275s vs 335s:
