Installing some stuff! worked on the car for a little while tonight got the katech sts ready to bolt up i ended up getting a spec stage 3 with billet steel flywheel and a remote bleeder from LAPD C6 with adapter to fit the new spec throwout. As it sits the transmission is out and ill install the new motor mounts while i wait for the rear main seal so the clutch can go back in and lastly put the new trans mount in i cant wait to feel how this car drives after!

nice man, keep in mind the spec will get alittle smoother after break in.
did the LAPD bleeder come with everything needed or did you have to hunt down the adaptpr. Also did you order the bleeder for the c5 or c6 vette ?

Glad to see you used my header wrapped motor mount idea !
Those things are damm close to the manifolds, I think its the reason the stock ones fail so often.
BTW, I had trouble losing bolts in my gargae , I cant imagine if I was on gravel !
