Orderd stock 12589227(ls2) head gaskets today and hopefully brian will have my heads in a few days so he can port match them. Thought about painting the intake flat black and the lettering gloss.. I think it would look very nice.

well still waiting on my 225's to come in... so i stole this L33 from a kid for 150 bucks with a oil pressure issue. he said the screen is stopped up but i believe the sensor is bad, because the sensor has not been replaced and when the kid told me it would loose oil pressure he would keep driving it and it would run fine and randomly it would get oil pressure back. motor has between 23-24k miles on it
