Default I feel like I am so under the gun...

Just started prepping my car for the Power Tour this summer.

Yesterday, pulled out old rusty headers, plugs/wires, battery, shocks/springs, wheels, torque arm and intake/throttle body.

I have a 1995 LT4 heads/cam Formula.

Swithcing to:
Bilsteins/Hotchkis springs from Hals
Coated Pacesetter headers
K&N FIPK and 58mm Throttle Body
Fikse 17x9.5/17x11 black FM5s from 2000 SS wheels

I got a TON of **** to do to get the car ready...Also have to get the Tranny serviced and a full on tune.

Nothing like pro-crastinating till the last minute

The car use to be my little brothers car and he didn't really have the right amount of cash to properly setup the car. He "pieced" alot of stuff together. Also the car gets about 7mpg and that definately isn't going to cut it on a 3000 mile Power Tour trip.

Plus want to pick up some more power...

i have to figure out why my stall isn't lockin(or put quieter exhaust), change brake fluid, find the coolant leak, finish intake setup, get it tuned, new tires etc. 3 months sounds like alot of time, but it really isn't
