Very, Very nice work!

I used to sell hoses and fittings so I know you spent a pretty penny on those re-useable fittings. Especially those big radiator hose fittings (assuming -32 size?). Assembling them are kinda a work out but at least you got the vice adapters so you keep everything nice and pretty. Good job!

So much inspiration. Going LS1 when my VQ dies, I could never get close to this level of quality and detail though.

Sorry Sorry for the lack of update, Car is at the Fab shop now getting its exhaust and intake made. Once I go to pick her up I will do a up date on the new good.





A look at my TS rear diffuser,, love this thing



Couple of the cars at the shop.. To much sexiness happening in one place.



Also since the car is gone, I though it was a perfect time to epoxy my floor..



I will give update on this as well..

You went way over the top cleaning that floor but kudos to you I used dish soap and a bristle broom then epoxy'd mine came out great except I laid it a little thick in a few areas and they shipped me the wrong color

Yeah well the only reason I had to get a grinder was cause there was already a form of epoxy on the ground.. Had to strip that sucker off.
