You never stop! I'm glad we don't live near each other... You would be a "bad" influence.

Looks great!

Thanks Roberto....good talking to you the other day and yes, it's probably best we're too far away to do any serious damage.

GM-EFI feature....

http://www.gm-efi.com/features/car-f...ention-detail/

More to come in 2015 for this car. After spending a little time behind the wheel this season and around the show circuit, I've got a short list of "should have done" revisions planned that include cosmetic and performance changes

THEN I'll be done......

Amazing as always! I must say it's tempting to replace my R888's with a pair of those TQ's, if only for the meaty sidewall. A 315/35/18 tire is the perfect size for a lowered 4th gen IMO.

I agree....had 315/30s on for a minute. The extra meat (though minor) made an immediate difference. Still doesn't hook, lol.....

Brent- I haven't seen your thread in months but we've spoken since then and I don't think you mentioned the write up. Congrats! Just an incredible build with amazing attention to detail.

Hey Roberto...I know, long time. Nothing new really....probably should have the mods burry this thread. Kicked around a Cam Motion upgraded stick this year, but havent got around to pulling the trigger. Might actually make real power over 8k

Write up was posted a few posts prior to yours....you must be getting old, man.

Thanks as always....
