Made a video of the T/A

**juiced99ws6** · 12-09-2008, 02:36 PM

I dont have any newer video clips from after the heads/cam swap but I dont think the video turned out to shabby. Hopefully when I get newer clips I can do a video of the old setup followed by pics of the build and then the new vids. Lemme know what yall think!

I was waiting for that one.. that is actually not true though. I was replacing bulbs like crazy just thinking the bulbs was out or just dim. It is actually the taillight housing itself though. The passenger one is noticably darker than the drivers one in sunlight. Whenever I did a walk around of my car for the longest time I just thought its how the light was shining on it. In the pic where you can see it half in the shop doors and showing the back end it looks like my taillight has been blacked out.. i dont know what happened to it lol

Ok. I had one go out one time and got pulled for it. I thought I was getting pulled for other things but luckily he didn't see that...

yeah i get it all the time actually.. i am just scared to buy another one so I need a full set of rears so I am sure they will match. You cant even see the taillight during the day

**TempleU_WS6** · 12-09-2008, 03:43 PM

apparently the whole track got redone and people are able to run some pretty decent times out there now. It is under new ownership or some thing. That track was AWFUL

got them dirt cheap off ebay years ago. I didnt realize there was a difference when i bought them. They were CNCed by Morgan Motorsports and have enlarged valves, I forget the flow numbers now but they were alot better than my stco 99 heads and I couldnt get rid of them mso I just bought valve covers and used them. Worked out good for Orion, right buddy

He has my old valve covers, well one of them anyways.

Oh yea? I heard it sucked, that was one of the reasons I never bothered going out there...

Well, that and the fact that I don't actually want to know how fast(slow) my car is

Nice video btw

yeah it did really realllllyy suck. I mean to the point that you could drop almost a half second off your time if you just drove to dallas or san antonio (well if you actually had the power to spin

)

thanks for the compliment. its a shame i wont be able to show you the car in person when I get back

Ok I was thinking what the hell when I saw the shot of parts and saw what looked like a 98 Valve Cover Gasket ans was like WTF so I paused it at that finished engine shot got confused
