Just got the front springs installed last weekend and am happy with the Hotchkis pieces I have added to the car!

      Ryan – We’re glad that you’re happy with the new springs. Good luck with the swap over the Christmas break. Are you going to try to get it done that week, or just start the swap? It could be done…if you had all the necessary parts on hand and were extremely determined. ;)

      Yeeeaahhh.. Just gonna get it started. LOL. Hopefully the dipstick and tube for my Holley oil pan will ship out on the 30th like their Summit's site says. Still have to get headers and fuel pressure reg/filter. Gonna take us three or four weekends I think.

      Car is finally done! First two LS1's failed and third has been a charm. Just drove it home from my friends garage where the build took place on Saturday. Headed to Run Thru The Hills in Pigeon Forge in September. Herb, have you moved to this area yet?

      Yeah Chris... The second motor got us to the gas station and about half way back to Scott's, then came a god-awful internal knocking noise after I went about half throttle. Not good, but we had that motor out and broken down to the block in about two hours with the help of some Captain Morgan. LOL. Car is awesome now. Just have to get the exhaust welded and the o2 sensors moved. Click this link below for a couple new pics. Will get some better motor pics up soon.
