Over the weekend, got the engine sealed up other than heads. Waiting on lifters to come in. Today ordered full UMI roadrace K-member, tubular upper and boxed lowers w/ roto-joints. The the engine going back up in hopefully next week.
Still waiting on headers and ORY to come in.

I'll get some pics up when we get it all laid out.

My son is pretty stoked. He can't wait to drive it again.

decided to redo my 2.5 y pipe and go with a 3 inch y to dual 2.5 over the axel to some 6 inch long race bullets i have and dumps before the rear bumper to hid everthing. I picked up 2 8 foot peaces of 2.5 and 3 inch pipe for just over $40 and 2 hangers that were 3.99 a peasce.. so my set up on my 6 speed 02 camaro is full bolt on, 228/234 112 cam, 1 7/8 headers, and a moser 12 bolt with a 411.. dyno with the stock 10 bolt was 396/374 and never dyno with the 12 bolt so probably like 370's-380's. But is was through a 2.5 y pipe to a slp 2 to single 2.5 over the axel that slit to 2.5 duals.. sounded good but cant be that good for hp! so fair to yesterday this is what i got with just pie cutting and welding the 3 inch and the 2.5.. after the merge of the 3 inch its going dual 2.5 over that axel.. I know a bunch of ppl will say it will flow like **** and what not but hay i hade the bullets so its coasted me about $50 for the hole thing.. should b dont with it later today..thoughts?

Getting ready for the new UMI road race K-member to get here tomorrow. But have a few things to get now. I need to find new upper control arm plates that aren't rusted.

But got in the headers & ORY and the front shocks.

Since I'm a broke ****...my buddy and I are working on some "free" horsepower mods for the car. Ground off all the baffles in the stock lid and are going to work on gutting the cats and finishing the plugs tonight/next week.

Grinding off the stock baffles isn't a bad way to. If my stock lid wasn't cracked I would have just run that with a smooth bellow. My SLP lid isn't carb compliant so I actually sanded off the logo to make look OEM

With the new o2 sensor and those baffles ground off...the butt dyno says she's pulling MUCH better. Still throwing a code of 'catalyst efficiency below threshold' and I'm fighting a cylinder 5 misfire.

Got a new alternator pigtail for my car, the dummy who owned the car before me had the wrong part in and broke it to make it fit -_-, so now I just need to figure out which of the 4 wires gets connected as there is only 1... Any advice guys? (I have pics, I'm bad at eplaining things)
