How many points? I waited 12 weeks for a 4 point chrome moly one. Ended up canceling it.

Dang! 12 weeks? I ordered a 4 point. I'm not in a huge hurry, being winter, but I definitely want time to put it in before spring though. Hopefully it'll get here pretty soon.

Yea, not sure why. Maybe the chromemolly ones take longer. They were blaming their powder coater lol

Bought a binder and organized all of my mod receipts and maintenance records since I bought it. 17 years old and 145,000 miles isn't too late to start a complete maintenance history is it? Made one for my Jeep too since I'm sure I'm going to go into a tailspin modding that this summer too.

Gathered up the materials to finish the dual 3" stainless exhaust. Just 6 welds to finish on the pipes and two O2 sensor bungs to put on. Then it is just add hangers and some tabs between the two pipes left. Excited to get it back home and wire everything up to get it running.

Just finished my sound system refresh project. Routed new speaker wires and replaced the coaxial Focal speakers in the sail panels with CDT subwoofers. I still need to put on all the interior trim and panels but it is done.

wrapped my secondary pipes back to the X pipe.



Needed to wrap the driver side because it goes under the fuel and brake line, so I just did both sides back the X pipe.

I just wrapped my brake/fuel lines instead of the pipes. It was easier and makes the lines look a little neater.

Keeping the heat in the exhaust for the secondary pipes to the X will result in a stronger suction and make more power.

How much weight do you think it added? I've never used the heat wrap before.

-- First Post --

Replaced the lower bearing, lower bearing adapter, lower bearing cap, and snap ring on the steering column. Not as easy as it sounds. Now I have to figure out what I broke in the column doing the swap. High beams are stuck ON, washer/wipers don't work. Turn signals DO. But at least the steering wheel doesn't wobble any more. So there's that. I just hope it's not the multi-function switch. I fear it is though.

I'm going to need a good rain before I pull the Camaro out from hibernation. It's so salty everywhere.

Adjusted the high beam switch, and flipped the multifunction switch plug on the column. Everything works now. Took an extra 20 minutes. Sweet.
