3.5 gen Camaro update - Guages, exhaust, etc Howdy,
Finished the exhaust (y-pipe was a pain), got tires mounted up, had it aligned, need to finish some interior wiring / radio hookup, bleed the clutch some more, and other misc. Should be on the road before much longer. I like the way it sounds, and very much want to be able to drive it.
more photos in here: http://www.bubbadrift.com/album/thum...lbum=26&page=1
When everything is finished i will probably make a dedicated page with more details.

I've had it running many times (love the exhaust note). It is not throwing any codes, leaking or any other problems with the motor or swap. I have had problems with a faulty water temp gauge, and some other issues. Example: Do not hook up the speedometer the way that Autometer says in the instructions, the pcm will not be able to see the speed. Splice the speedo input wire into the VSS return wire, and leave the speedo out disconnected. That is something i learned the hardway, with the help of searching the forums and internet. I've spent a lot of time bleeding the clutch, still not happy with it but i'm going to drive some and see how it feels. Lots of last minute details.
I'll be taking it for it's first road trip after work.
More photos and write ups tomorrow
