Thumbs up Progress on the Z!!*PICS*

Pretty much all of the weight loss is done except for the stereo, k-member,lower a-arms. I got most of the suspension istalled, and the Prostars, and tires. I still need to get the cam, cage, rear sway bar, and rearend,and finally the Kirkey's. I"ll get pics up when everything else is done.

Are you going to trim/remove the excess seam sealer as well? And pass. air bag?

How much of a PITA was it to get the center vent out? I need to pull just that one so it dont throw any heat/ac on the switch panel I made.

I never thought about taking out the seam sealer, I will probably do that. I already have the pass. airbag out, along with everything else out from behind the dash! The center vent was very easy, look at it from behind and it is pretty self explanitory I just popped it out with a flathead screwdriver, I will be putting some gauges there and my switch panel where the heat/air controls once were.

Nate and Cat- I forgot to add that I will be getting rid of the abs when the new rearend arrives, and the SD tune will be for when the new motor goes in this fall/winter.

Skipper-you have a pm.

SVT- I never took the time to weigh everything, but going by the weights in the sticky, I would say about 400lbs. Heat,a/c, front/rear bumper supports, rubber mat on fire wall,all windshield washer accessories,jack/spare,door bars,all plastic under front end, front wheel wells,all chromeoly suspension, interior brackets,rear seats,carpet,etc. I won't take the stereo out until I never drive it on the street anymore!
