welcome back to the Chevy chronicles.just bought the new headlights.using the old 300c lights i had to custom mold new.then just install these beauties when they get here.the honey comb mesh from Kamei is backordered till the middle of next month.alsio pictured.molded out the front emblem.like it better without plus the paint never sticks to it.you had to wrap it in vinyl.gonna finish the vehicle wrap teusday night ,should be just bout hot enough to take out.molded ot all the lines where bumpers meet with bumper repair epoxy and wrap over it in one piece.FEEL free to leave any constructive comments guys.or just let me know how youre upgrades are doing. p.s i am building the SLS front bumper prototype next month when i get time,and another bumper.

This was hands down the best deal i found on a turn key 327 5.3 chevy crate ,at $7400.puts you in the serious class.to say the least.when you consider adding headers intake and other minors to any crossfire is 3000 to 4000.turbo is 5000 tuned you can buy this and it comes 400hp 390 torque,fully forged feul injected with all acceories and throttle body.wiring harness and headers also .sweet deal for a warranty brand new motor with a new rear youre out the box brand new for the price of a turbo.and youre fully forged so after you recoup the price you spend,at later date you can boost.easy.companies name is TurnKey crate .com

Re: v8 chevy swap
had a 500sl motor for 250 over at tvt when i was there getting my suspension done.gave a deposit and then reniged.once you tag out in the game youre gone.foot in the water youre wet.anyway i like the chevy cam and hard powerful exhaust banging out the sides of that beast as i rattle down the track at the tune of a 9.9 quarter with the sweetest RT. basically i dont have the luxury of an SRT ,so i gotta buy muscle cheap.lol talk to guys later.got the rest of my car wrap in the mail today and im headed out.bye
