I was looking at his new gauges and was like. Man didn't he just sell some of those?

But I'm crossing fingers for him. :)

oh, and this time around im going to do a lot of shit myself so i know shit gets done :) right now we just need to refresh the motor a little, figure out what cam to run, get/install fuel cell, do final prep (alignment, tuning), then paint from another shop that owes me and off to willow springs raceway we go ;)

deadline is mid-to-end of january for a running car.

Call Speedtek. They have a website too. they have built several hot Camaros.

WTF? Your kidding right? I thought you threw this in, instead of clutch/FW.

i took some sexier pictures but they are very blurry and you cant make anything out of them. epic fail! :(

on a serious note - this wiring is badass. all wires are labeled, all fuses and relays are standard, wire and insulation quality is top notch. very much worth $170 + shipping i paid for it!

Damn that's a great deal.

I also chose to not deal with wiring. I sent my grungy stock harness to Jason McCully for a weight reduction, cleaning, rerouting for a drop in fitment for the 5.0. Everything comes back labeled, plus a mod/relay to run the stock fuel pump, detailed instructions, etc. Worth the $200 for me.

just ordered oil pump and that $200 trap-door oil pan insert. shit is coming together!

edit: motor has been refreshed (gaskets, seals, chain, etc) and the only missing piece at the moment is oil pump.
