Thanks for the comp's fellas.
Nope, don't think I've ever been to friendswood.
Can't wait to get the headers on and cam. Then when I get bored I will sell the motor and go with a similiar setup I did in my SS. Single 76 on a 6.0.

i think the car is looking great! only question i have is, why did you rattle can your tail lights with vht? professionally tinted tail lights would look really good with gloss black paint. good job on the car!

Yeah they are a satin finish in the tail lights. I actually used ppg which is the same paint I used on everything else BUT I did not clear them due to shade of darkness. I wanted to make sure the weren't too light/dark before I cleared them. To me they are not dark enough so sonetine this weekend I will throw a few more light coats and clear which will buff out like glass.
