Default Its Alive!!!!

project delta ss is almost to a close.
we have all the wiring figured out, and 90% put away.
the vats is disables thanks to ls1 edit( if there was ever any doubt as to whether or not to buy it... DO IT! the software is amazing and very user friendly....almost too friendly, lol.)
the entire suspension has been redone with urethane bushings, eibach lowering springs, edelbrock ias shocks, and moog balljoints. the rear arms were boxed.
the only thing left is the dual exhaust. we are going to get the hooker aero 2 1/2 setup for the impala ss if the factory looks like it will fit.(you would not believe how many parts are interchangeable between the two...)
we are going to run it on the street tomorrow, open headers, baby!
i will video it, and snap a few pics to update the website http://www.cardomain.com/id/delta_ss

the only thing, is that shes running the factory skinny tires on it(205's on 15's). we will put the impala ss rims (w/ 255 or 275's on 17's)on it as soon as we get some tires when the funds recoup a bit. the few people here who have helped us through emails, i would like to thank. its been a blast, and i think it will be worth it. the only thing is i think the delta is going to be faster than my 99 ta vert. at least until the bottle gets opened.
anyone know a decent free vid host, or would someone be able to host it for me?

wish us luck!!!
