[Rallye455]

Yes motor is setup for EFI but I'm selling all the EFI stuff and going Carbuerator. I just cant afford the EFI.

[1968CamaroSS_Sam]

Very nice looking blue paint you are going. Love that shade of blue.

[kkhawkins]

What color is that?

[Happyfunballs]

Looks like a color shifting paint. Hence the name of his project?

[Motown 454]

Nice progress it looks good.

[Rallye455]

Thanks..not blue...Its a DuPont Chromalusion color called Green Purpleen...hard to catch how hard it flops in pics.

[jturkey69]

Thanks for the updates!!...Im loving it!

[Rallye455]

Got the Recaro front seats and matching rear seats (out of a Mitsubishi) mounted the other day. I made my own brackets. Will get pics soon as I can.

[jturkey69]

That will be interesting on the fitment for the rear...I have been hoping to use the front and rear seats out of a 90's grand prix coupe. The console with floor shifter I will be using is from a 98 bravada

[Rallye455]

Started smoothing and polishing the valve covers. I still have a LONG way to go but I started with this

WOW..that thing looks just brutal!! awesome work, and patience!!!

[Viperlover]

Tell me you didn't decide on different valve covers after all that work...

[Rallye455]

Not sure which ones I'm going to use. I like them both. I have a polished Meziere pump to go on the front also. I'll get some pics as soon as its installed.

[Rallye455]
