[383_GrandPrix]

Put it in the car first!

Working on it! V6 should be coming out today.

This cam has a powerband that comes in around 1,800-6200rpm if I recall correctly.

Better check the rev limiter... because I think it is set to 6900rpm. Or just let it eat.

Yep, I don't plan on hitting that yet. Need seats and belts in first to tool around the neighborhood.

You're lucky fleming442 wasn't the fun police. He'd probably tell you to lean over the fender and spread 'em! 🙂

Sooooo, back to the steering wheel stuff. The 2nd mod is done and looks killer! I dropped the horn button off at a trophy shop the other day that does alot of car show awards and such. I told them what I wanted, turns out the sales guy has a 66 Cutlass so I felt more confident it would be done right. They transferred the file to their laser etch machine and knocked it out of the park!
I picked it up today and yep, slick slick slick!!! Thanks D for the proper emblem, I was gonna use an early 90's rocket that doesn't look as good. I'll get it bolted onto the wheel later, but for now....

Thanks man! Having rocket emblem of some form on there was the plan from the start, just had to figure out the right way. The shop nailed it!

Forgot to mention earlier....the horn button spins so I'll constantly be fixing it, especially if at a show or cruise in.
