Just wanted to extend a BIG public "thank you" to Matt for his time today.

Again, he was a big help and he was able to get the intake installed as well as the rear brake caliper and some other odds and sods.

Nearly ready to start the car. However, I still have some outstanding problems with the upper AND lower control arms.

Thanks again Matt.

 

Matt is a great person and a wizard when it comes to f-bodies to you Matt....Shawn, you have a message regarding your suspension issue's...

 

Oh I must also thank Mike.

Mike has been a HUGE contributor of his time and talent.

You've been great help and company Mike.

Mike: I cannot see an email or PM. FYI

 

No need Shawn..I'm just a cook that loves good people and friends not to mention cars...everybody put their .2 cents in to your project...I had fun and that's all that matters...

 

aside from the recent rivalries between me and matt .. i must say .. he knows his sh*t when it comes to Fbods .. he helped me out a lot too in the past .. and it all started when i bought an opti from him !! lol ... he taught me most that i know today ...

sorry i couldnt be of any help shaun, u know i wanted to .. but school takes a big chunk out of my life these days ...

hope to see the beast on the 23rd. i'll be more "free" after wed if u needed any more help (getting it started and FAST and anything else... now i gotta cook up an aircare tune for ur FAST too )

 

Awww thanx guys all of you Shaun always talks about you mike, what a great help you are etc... Thanx Payam, nice to feel appriciated & to you Shaun & Mike ahhh. Shaun, I wanted to do more but I looked & looked & couldn't find the darn TB gasket as you could see I had to relocate your metering orifice valve thing to the driver's side cuz it wouldn't fit with the other fitting in there aswell, even on the other side the grommet had to face sideways I made sure the wires for the pump were rerouted a bit cuz now with the intake on & the EGR it would melt but there's not much help, wish I had the TB gasket hope the car will run good & that is RTV getting friendly 2 brands .

Also I couldn't find the darn power charging wire for the alternator it was geting dark see if you can find it & hook it up cuz I couldn't maybe I put the alternator on it but I'm sure I didn't its hiding.

 

So how much longer guys??????

 

Well I'm going to check out and hopefully finish things off today. I have to a get TB gasket (*slaps forehead*).

Need to get some gas

Check the harness is all plugged in. Install the FAST software on the laptop. Getting real close to start up.

PS: Unlikely that I'm going to have the front suspension installed by next weekend. I have had more BS setbacks.

 

BTW LPE has the best cheapest TB gaskets They are like $2.50ea

I ordered ten last time

 

Yeah Shaun if you want to ask any question go ahead, but did you find that power wire or what? I almost died in traffic yeterday, 2 HOURS!!! good thing its a firefly otherwise I'd be pissed
