Ordered some parts today.



Edelbrock O2 extentions.... $25 for both

Header gaskets (dont remember brand, maybe Mr. Gasket?) $20

Felpro Intake gaskets $25

Do these seem like good prices?



Where can I get some poly engine mounts? I also made about 10 or so block off plates for the headers. 18-22 guage should be ok right?

Should be pulling it out tuesday evening to start working on it

I am bringing the car home tomorrow.

I have to get different o2 extensions because he thought I was getting them for my 93 ... Not that it really matters cause when I went to pick up the parts I told him they were wrong so I didn't really waste time... I think I will end up ordering some from Texas speed... They have the cheapest so far at $20 each for 19".

As for engine mounts I bought some brand new poly mounts and poly torque arm mount for 35 bucks shipped off a local forum

For the rear o2's can I just unplug them or tape them off until I get the car tuned? I don't want to spend 100 bucks on sims that is crazy. I won't effect anything if I disconnect them or tape them off for a month will it? Other than throw a code?

Thanks!!!
