Boy, that really pumps up quick. Your video really shows how much the axle and pinion angle changes. Car's looking very cool my friend.

Is there such thing as never being content? I think I have that.

I decided to pull the old (and by old I mean newly installed) engine and trans combo, and join the LS crowd.

I will be putting in an L92 6.2L and 4L80E combo in my car. More to come on this!

Correct, no insulation. This shop is actually at my mom and her husbands house, as I have only a 1 car garage.

I'll take the cold any day for the space!

Heck yeah, that is a very cool building!

Re: My other passion...65' Impala SS
 
Thanks guys! I got everything done under the car, so I put it on a trailer and brought it back to my place for the wiring. I it was great to use this space, but for something like wiring, I like to take my time, and having to drive 50 miles to the car makes that difficult because I always feel rushed.

I'll be getting her wired in the next few weeks, then it should be time to crank her up!

It'll sure go a lot quicker having her at the house, for sure. What's left before you can cruise for the season?
