i lack reading comprehension? Im not bashing a shop for not helping a guy sue a company in which he didnt actually file any case. And then pretty much agree with the person they are arguing with.

F's sake Eric, get over it. Ernie's car was like a decade ago. The guy and the car has been out of the scene before like 90% of the ppl in the thread even joined my350. I think Ashton has his old kit, did like 2 builds and even he isnt an active member anymore. Thats how long ago that was.

There was a mileage discrepancy with the transporter. We all saw the the slip when it was posted a million years ago.

Start a new thread if you are so inclined to reopen the case. Lets get this thread back on topic...

Tim dont feel too special...He bashed me quite a bit back in the day, in fact went well out of his way to flame me every chance he got. And in the end, it turns out he was wrong with 99.999% of his character assassinations.

Looks much better!!!

Just a suggestion for your front timing cover. You have that unused bolt hole an studs. Cover the hole with your remote coolant filler neck bracket and remove the studs and put in the gold hardware.

Hardware is sick, where did you get it?

Default stud

Actually, the studs ARE coming out and a gold hex bolt will hold down the cover and hold a rubberized clamp on each side, for the catch can line to stay in place.

Default engine cover

I;m thinking of installing blue fender washers/SS bolts for effect around the engine cover..i decided the center washer has to go....I may stick with 6 total washer/bolts or just do the corners (4)...First it has to go out for black chroming.

I heard one case where someone claimed their coil packs overheated and stopped working when they installed aluminum covers (no vents) over the valve covers. Don't know what the chances are of that happening but adding vents in that cover might be something to consider.

took advice..had Tim mark some holes for heat escape/looks..I like the larger holes but need to be evenly spaced with washers...

Ok.....I think it's about time for an intervention here.

I'm not your Moma or anything....and I don't know $hit about $hit........so I really have no business telling you nuttin.......but did they ever get it running??????

I'd have to go back a reread the thread to get 100% accurate BUT I def rem the shop couldn't get the sucker tuned......then you decided to do some wild crazy a$$ grim reaper intake......now your building some space-station lookin' shield that will amplify all the heat in your engine bay.

I got nothing but love for you (don't actually know you) ....which I why I felt I had to say something.

Don't make me come over there and smack you upside your head with one of your crotch rockets

Ogiehooker, your whole ordeal reminds me of the aggravation of poor Pope Julius ll. Endlessly waiting to take the keys to his new beloved Sistine Chapel the pope grows more and more pissed at Michelangelo’s (who took over the project from the dishonest artisan Bramante) endless redoes and delays. In Frustration he shouts out “when will you make an end!”

I am with you, I am so confused about what you are trying to do with this car, it isn't race car, it isn't show car. The SS panels in the trunk really have me scratching my head.

as for thee ss in the trunk..i have $3000 in the w/m/b box so why would I keep the .50 cent looking plastic crap? might as well make it look as good as the w/m/b box...

I guess since I have enough $ to **** away on **** like this, you cheap *** guys dont get it..

Anytime you want toTRY and come smack me with you of my tricked out crotch rockets, have at it...bring a friend or 2 and your insurance card...LOL
