Re: Check out my progress

I think the color was list as sunburst in ppg color chart. chevy used it on 04 & 05 cars/trucks maybe others as well, there was three or four sunburst colors with different formulas to choose from.

Re: Check out my progress

Thanks for the compliments, I would like to do the tpi but its a 305 out of a 89 iroc. I bought a painless harness and was going to convert to speed density so it would possibly be a little easier to work with. I figured if i injected the 406 i would have to change intake runners, injectors & throttle bodyto make any power. The 406 has a lunati streetmaster cam, victor jr.,holley double pumper & dart pro1 aluminum heads and has very few miles on it. I'll probably run it like it is & gather some parts to try the injection later. Anyone reccomend some parts to use? Thanks for any & all advice.
