Re: Sinister
Yeah I know what you mean. Today I got to do yard work all day. Hopefully me and my old girl will get some quality time tomorrow.
Good luck with this when!

Re: Sinister
Sorry for the lack of udates guys
Well I ordered some parts this weekend & cant wait till they get here (its a surprise) Anywho, I started mocking up my engine so I could see if my headers would fit & make some templates for motor mounts I also started pulling out my rear end for the swap & in the process it fell on my big toe & either fractured it or severely hurt it !!!!  More to come

Re: Sinister
That black powder coat on the intake looks great. I was kinda worried about you modifying a brand new never used intake, but looks like it was worth it.
I vote lime green on the valve covers. Not only will it look good, but then will match the sway bar and spindles. Just a touch of color to show off the BBC valve covers. Do you have green powder coat or will you have to "spray bomb" them? Any plans on a rear sway bar? (you know how you drive) Didn't that front bar come off a truck with a rear sway bar??? They need to be matched you know. ANYWAY..........Get this one on the road!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "Killer" has that look on it....Thinks it is being mistreated by being shoved outside. Who know what might happen if you don't get back on Killer soon. Dad
