What did you buy for your G body today? [2019]

[88AZSS]

Went searching for the Gentex 341 mirror but couldn’t source a car in the junkyard that had one. But I did find an electric fan setup from a 300M to start that project.

just ordered some 14 gauge metal to do a little frame repair and and some 18 gauge for a patch I need in a quarter panel....I had to order it for curbside pickup so I had to pay full price. When the metal store is open I get my stuff from the cut off shelves and cash goes alot further than my credit card payment today........

Finally ordered the Trick Chassis swap kit I’ve been looking at for the last year.

Now I just have to not screw the pooch on my welds when I weld the upper control arm mounts.

I installed the new body bushings and air filter. Also, the Continental tires that I ordered from 4wheelonline arrived today. I will mount them next week.

For those of us that don't know performance parts, what do 799 heads go on, and why are they special?

For the T Type,

From TurboTweak:
60lbs injector+chip comb
Injector harness
Walbro 255lph pump
Pump hotwire kit
LT1 MAF
MAF translator
Scanmaster 2.1

From Kirban:
Fuel sending unit
Vacuum block hose kit
Oil cooler lines
Rad hoses
160 degree thermostat
Casper H4 Headlight and relay kit
Trans filter kit
Plug wires

I'll get fluids, plugs, and an oil and fuel filter locally. I think I need to replace my radiator as well. I may steal the Griffon radiator and fans out of my GN since it's not on the road anyway. Couple people told me to out an F body radiator in it, but I want the one from ColdCase with the factory oil cooler connections... But it's $400... ☹️

243/799 was the casting #s on the LS2 and LS6 cathedral port heads.

Best factory cathedral port heads. Perfect for a 550hp 6.0 with flat tops and a big stupid cam.

Getting ready for the hate, but one of the last things to bother me was, that I messed with everything else so decided to get some pedal covers. Gonna put some of the blue from the interior on them and see how they look. Then also had to get a repeater for the mirror I got, the van also needed it to be able to work so wasn't just for the Monte.

Thank you for the LS performance lesson. I am a high school student of the 1970s, and anything newer than 1985 is like learning a foreign language to me.
