Coated Hooker Long Tubes
ARP 12 Point Bolts
Fel Pro 1406s
Thunder Over the valve cover plug wire kit
New NGK TR6s
New Pro-thane(sp?) Motor Mounts

With it doing this, I kinda have no turning back now.

I wouldn't think the A.I.R. tubes would make it as loud as he described. But hell who knows there are a handful of things it could be.

Hey Neil,


You really need those long tubes. That'll really wake up that LT1.

Come over and I'll help you put 'em on. I'll only charge you a six pack of beer (per day). I'm the red ws6 w/ HRE wheels. Remember Taco Cabana?

Bad *** man, thanks, I'll holler at you. Let you relive your Lt1 days

Rick,

I checked and my 93 doesnt have any air tubes on that side, I noticed a spark plug was just laying there still on the boot

HAHA, I've only seen that happen once. But damn you should have felt it miss and stutter. THat would have helped out diagnosing it. A**hole... j/k Look now you only have 7 more plugs to go to change for the longtubes.

Shew, Looks like an easy fix! Kind of odd to see a spark plug back out like that.

Whatcha upto with those Tr6's?
