This past weekend I polished the new vacuum canister and installed it.
Charged the AC a week ago and it appears to be working good
Readjusted the rockers with it running just because and then I was finally able to put my hood back on and rewire the hood tach etc.
I still have to test drive it and make sure the trans lock up is working OK but basically done for now with the engine.

So for the time being I decided to spray can my cream/yellow doors to black to eliminate one of the 5 colors that my Regal has and I also started installing the GNX wheel flares and got the fronts done so far.

You have done an awesome job with that car. Where do you get all your braided stainless hose and AN fittings?

I used to buy everything though Summit or Jegs but I found a place that sells really nice fittings through Ebay but now I deal with them directly.
