yea i was going to go to Lincoln tech but many people recommended UTI to me..all i care about is hand on training

but the world is suppose to end in 2012 so yeaa who cares anymore haha

 

How long did it take you to pull out the engine?

 

Lincoln tech blows.

 

haha your friends are strange, shopping cart cars..... skittle color'd shirts.... lol

 

I don't see any problem in having an f-body when you are 16. I bought mine when I was freshly 18 and have not done anything stupid.

Generally with age comes maturity, but just know that there is more to the car then just trying to show off. Thats the problem most 16 year olds get into.

Glad the dad likes working on the car with you. My dad isn't that way. He tells me he loves my car but says I should buy a C5 next instead so he can drive it along with his Solstice GXP. We go on cruises together.

The car sounds good. Now just work on the mods and enjoy!

 

I bought my car with hooker shorty headers on it....i burned up 3 wires on the third spark plug on the passenger side...then ran the otvc to those back two on the passenger side and good to go....put them on in the beginning of the summer, and are still good to go. Any headers will burn up your wires if you do not run them right. My buddy with a 68 camaro wanted to hide the plug wires under the long tubes, had aircraft heat shield, and the dei spark plug boots on it, and they still burned through. Learn how to run the wires, take some time, do it right. I know I tried half assing my way through it too, but in the end doing it right the first time is much easier than replacing spark plug wires every 5 miles.

 

yea my friends are crazyyyy but we all got badd *** cars for the age of 16(:

But yeppp car should be done tomorrow! cant wait to feel the diff wit LT's! is it noticeable?

 

about 2-3 days with me going to school and working everyday hah. Just set your mind to it and your all good bro

 

when i was 16 i bought my 94 formula for 2500 that i had earned working at my dads shop since i was 15 years old. now i'm 19 and i've never been in a wreck and don't act like a jackass while driving my car. nice lt1 man good luck with it

 

Give it time of working on it you will get quicker. I can drop the K-member in an hour, or take it out the top in 2 hours.

 

+1.
The Arizona speed marine headers would destroy #6 if you were stupid enough to use a right angle boot. Put a straight boot on and no worries.

 

And your a retard... Installed 4 sets of AS&Ms as well as have a set on one of my own cars and I have NEVER burned a plug boot... And that is N/A as well as forced induction... Oh, they are all right-angle boots on all installs as well as MSD wires, Taylor wires, Accel wires and even Jacobs wires have been used successfully without burning a boot...

Watch what you are doing, figure it out and do what you are supposed to, and you won't have simple issues like this...

 

sounds good, but sounds like it's idling way too high. should be somewhere near 1000rpms, sounds like its 1200-1700rpms.

 

Very true.. I had a lincoln continental when i was 16, loved it tho. I loved the big roomy back seat. (Wink, Wink! )

 

I didnt want to resort to name calling, but my AS&M's dont come anywhere my STOCK #6 plug wire...

 

You looked like a kid in a candy store how you was hopping around getting ready to start it up haha, good feeling.

Whoever took the cheap shot at the daddy buying everything was.... cheap. Just because your daddy never loved you don't mean you can bash others. haha

 

ahah well put bombebomb! (:
i guesss since im 16 people think that my dad pays for everything?

but for a 16 year old, going to school, and working 2 jobs getting about 30-35 hours a week is very difficult, then comes my car! hah(: But i loveee it!

It was a cold start, but no it idles at 1000 cold and drops to about 900 warm

 

Im running the same headers only with aftermarket y-pipe with MSD 8.5mm wires and they do not touch anywhere. If anything my #5 plug wire is the closest to the header then any of them.

 

Well I have a friend with Yellow flake Cobalt SS (No rear wing, its chilling in my room now)...Its way faster then then Stage 3 though so its acceptable in my book haha

 

You need to eat some of those steaks at Outback brother! LOL

I love the PaceSetter headers. I went from a set of midlength headers to those and it was a noticeable difference.
