well guys, i moved to live with my mother in San Antonio, Tx which is about 5-6hrs away from my previous residence. i'll be attending college here, so last weekend i made the move to get on my feet a little before starting school. I'm Happy to say that i drove my z28 5-1/2hrs from lufkin, Tx to San Antonio, Tx with not a single issue. 375 miles and a good 40-60 psi of oil pressure the whole way w/ the car not even going above 185 degrees. I'm extremely happy with the car so far except it looks as if i have a slight oil leak from what looks to be the rear main... but i need to further inspect this situation.
other than that, no problems. got our garaged cleaned out, and got my car into it. really thankful for this instead of my driveway like before.

I have to ask..... Is that a half burned doob under your air dam?

The Z looks really great for doing this your self and makes me want to pick up a grill insert for my dads 96Z as that is just mean/evil looking front end.
