Wait 'til you see the coil brackets that mount on the rocker covers. I really like the accent the blue paint puts on it, very happy that I did it, but I got the idea from some of the guys that are helping me, they did red metalcast on a black Z and that got me to thinking about this.

I'm plannin on it for now, got to make sure all is taken care of at home first. If it is then I should be by mid-morning or so. Need to source the bolt still, couldn't find one tonight.

Didn't get any of the install, but I can get some of the finished product. It was very easy to do, not hard at all. Yes we did use a dremmel blade to do all of the cutting, it took a while and lots of blades, but it wasn't that hard either.


Ed recommends that the engine and trans be dropped to the floor and the car raised for the cutting and welding, that would have made it TONS easier, but we just contorted ourselves to get it done with everything in place.

I dont like that idea with the bolt bro.. Is ED going to send the other one?? I wouldnt risk it. A lot of $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ to gamble on. Its not EDs fault either just need the other one ASAP!

Hopefully the issues at hand at home are good now. Call if you need anything.

Not at all. Lots of pride going into this car! Looks very good, but any reason you used an Eaton? Kenne Bell T/S's are too big I guess?

I used the Eaton based off of a mag article that I had read earlier, saw an amazing power increase off of a stock bottom and a carb, and KB would be nice as well, but no kits available for the F-bodies right now.
