Awesome! Called you yesterday to see how progress was going. I thought it must have been bad since you didn't call back. Glad to see I was wrong! When do I get a ride?

Congrats on the cam swap Flawless!!! What are the specs on it? Hey since that night at the Park and Ride your engine bay has made me start a whole new project. Your polished parts under the street lights were so sweet I went on my own polishing rampage. The entire motor and everything around it is now polished. I even got a polished Weiand intake! Your car inspired me, I can't wait for you to take a look!

I'm glad I inspired someone around here to clean up their engine bay!! I know yours looks awesome now, I cant want to see it!! Yeah I got to get back started on mine, I got to add some more chrome parts to mine for the car shows next year, got to keep coming with something different.

No stock cat back, have a 5" piece of pipe connecting the ORY to the rest and its only bolted on so i can take it off when i want. With them wide open it sounds awesome, when i close it off it sounds almost stock, buddy of mine with a vette said it sounded like a stock Z06 when i rev .
