Sup guys: so today was long beach swapmeet, first time the Bu has been out!!! It was so fun looking at people getting on there knees to see what i had under the Bu with the electric cut outs.. Hahahhha there were alot of looks through out the hole dayand alot of questions!! Lol lol....

I had an overheating problem started thursday and found out that my temp sensor was bad 😳 i couldnt find a 180 temp sensor to turn my fans on, so i went with a 220 temp senor, and that was bad!!! Still over heating.. So then i called team c performance and sure enough they had dual sensor intake probe that turns on at 185 & off at 170 temp sensor,$40 just the temp sensor!! so out with the 220 autozone sensor and in with the new racing high performance intake temp sensor, all i had to do was ground the other side of the sensor and BAMMMMMMMM!! On at 185 and off at 170... I also went to oriellys and purchased a new temp gaguge... Something i can read easy.. They have two types and i got the hard one at first lol, i also went from side of block to on top on intake for temp gauge and so far so good, very accurate well with all that said.. Shes running like a champ!! Enjoying and hope u enjoy pics

Hanging out at my buddies house after swapmeet. Took two pics lol

Today i got my polished aliminum procomp electronic throttle bracket from Ebay seller "White Performance"... Looks super clean!! They have all colors and the aluminum feels good... I used my stock trans kickdown bracket for my cable and it worked out great, theres no clerence issue with it hitting the throttle bracket and looks great 😀 i paid $35 shipped for throttle bracket and 1hour looking for the dayum stock kick down bracket in garage.. So far so good, all tight, and ready for a test drive tomorrow or next weekend when it stops raining.. 🙂

Kickdown stock bracket, saved me $25 for a summit decent bracket:

Good clerance for kickdown bracket:

Skip White at White Performance is a good dude to deal with. I have spent close to $1500 in the past 3 months with him and have never had any issues. Good guy to deal with.
