The anticipation's killing me... Anybody else have parts waiting to be installed?
I have a stockpile of parts waiting to go on next time I go home. Finally saved up enough money to purchase tires for the rims I purchased... last November. Also have some BMR springs and an adj. panhard bar. Still saving up for the Konis, but I want to put the new wheels on w/out the 4x4 look haha, so stock shocks ( I know, I know) will have to do for now.
So maybe it's not a stock pile, but I know it's going to change the cars look drastically. Why can't school just be easy? Busy all day and all I hear about is how much fun my dad's having at home w/ my car

I had a whole 396 ci LS1 with AFR225's and Fast/NW 90 mm sitting on a UMI Kmember with a Arms and Big brakes all set up and ready to go then my divorce happened.
Yes I know how anticipation feels
I just wish I would have had a chance to get it all together and at least take one run before selling it all off.

I know...I just bought some new MLS head gaskets and ARP head studs, LS2 timing cover and LS2 DR timing set. Next is a custom blower cam and ATI Super Dampener. That will complete my engine NA. Then I still need a 8-rib pulley kit, FMIC kit, Cooling Mist Meth kit and that will complete the engine FI. After that...I still need a Monster clutch, build T56, Moser 9"...
IT NEVER ENDS!!!

I have a closet full of suspension goodies:
Koni 4/4's, Strano Springs, UMI LCA's, RLB's, and PHB. all i need is a running car to install them on
Already in the car is a newly rebuilt crank/bottom end (sadly stock) and fresh tires, but my clutch is about to peace out and its having misfire/ O2 sensor problems. hopefully it will all be solved within this month. its been way too long since i have been able to actually drive the car.

I guess I'll bring the thread back from the dead. Got out of school the other week and just finished putting all the suspension stuff on. Car goes in to the tire shop in the morning for an alignment, mount and balance. I'll be sure to post some pics once I get the car back, looking forward to see how those HP split 5's look.

Ive got a 500+hp Forged LS1 out of my Trans Am, fully built TH350 trans with trans brake and ratchet shifter, 200hp nitrous setup with standalone and a 2 step, fuel cell, front bumper support, rear drag sway bar, mini tubs(to clear the 30" rear tires), all kinds of sheetmetal to cut out and replace, Kirkey race seats, battery relocation and cut-off switch, almost no exhaust(on purpose), and if I get to it motor plates, drag radiator, and remote mount water pump. All of that going into my car with a custom 10pt cage, slicks and skinnies, a 40 spline spooled moser 9" and lots of weight cut out.
Im starting to get real itchy not being able to work on it
