thats right for the first time since mid 2004 i drove my car. while it was only in the church parking lot across the street from my house since i have no lights at all on the car i did get to drive it. the suspension and steering felt just as good or better than a new corvette. i need to bleed the rear brakes one last time because i didn't have anyone to help me do it tonight so the vacuum bleeder was all i could do. it sounds bad ass and the power is instant (335/30-18's spin alot easier on black top then i would have guessed even with a 3.50 gear) i'm going to bust ass this week and try to get it out next weekend if its nice.
here is a few newer pictures, the top 2 are from today

Congratulations, that's got to feel great after all that hard work.
Nice pictures but I noticed something. Using cinder blocks to support your car is unsafe and puts you at risk. Jack stands are cheap, you should get a pair.

i've had a jack stand collaps just after i got out from under a car before, cinder blocks hold up thounds of pounds of buildings. i do have a pair but they are under another car at the moment.

i'm pretty excited, i think i'm going to go for another drive this morning haha.:yeah:

Real nice. Have fun.

Is the PS cooler required for the hydroboost?

Are those side mirrors from a c4 vette or third gen camaro? They look awesome. I am using the same thing on my 68 bird, any trick to getting them mounted? are they electric?

i'm not running a power brake set-up but intend to do some autocross and that stuff so i want to keep things cool.

3rd gen mirrors. they look good on there but i need power mirrors and they block the vent windows so i will either get the power 3rd gen mirrors, corvette mirrors or just get rid of them all together.
