LOL. Thats the funniest thing I've heard all week. I bank at Chase. I probably pay .0000000000000002% of your salary. Apparently GM Parts is not the place to be....

A couple more things I've been working on. The past few days I've been working on the engine harness. Stripped all the loom and tape off and used some braided loom. I stripped the harness of a few things I didn't need and moved the O2 sensor plugs toward the rear of the harness to eliminate the use of having to use O2 extensions.








I also made a head plate out of carbon fiber that I was going to use as a template to make out of aluminum and then powder coat but I think I may just leave it as is. I'll be making another for the passenger side also. I did it all with a dremel lol.
