We're gonna need an address to send our condolences lol.

I mean I work hard enough, she will get over it. Its not like shes going to leave me over a $1,000. I told her I bought everything last week, she didnt have a terrible reaction, just shook her head and walked off. So I guess that gave me some sort of reassurance that I wouldnt be in too much trouble..

Plus I prefer to go with happy spouse, happy house.

I bought 80 lb injectors for my GN.

A friend of mine just bought a set of chrome wheels as shown on ebay. They're called Ridlers. 2 20 X 10s and 2 20 X 8.5 all 0 offset. Chroming is extra nice and the cost for all was $1003. I thought it was a great value. Smaller sizes will cost less of course.

Here's a set on a pristine 69 CHEVELLE:

I bought an NOS oil cap for the 87. I didn't need it, but it was pristine and only 8.98 including shipping. Plus a Delco Freedom battery decal for the top of my AGM. Gonna fake my way to a Delco battery, although the same company who made that one makes the Delco ones, so, it's not technically inaccurate maybe.

Here's me waiting for the delivery person:

They kind of took their sweet time turning it around, but so far, pleased with the result. Will post update once it’s hooked up and tested.

I would bench test it before I installed it, all you need in a multimeter set on ohms

I will probably get in trouble for this with my wife, but I ordered a set of US Mag Ramblers. Two 17x7 for the front, and 17x8 for the rear. I also purchased Belltech 2in front drop spindles, with 1 inch Belltech drop springs for the rear. I will take pics once I have everything in.

take a couple of selfies before and after your wife learns of your purchase, the ones from before could help with the reconstructive surgery....:cool:

I picked this up from TR custom parts a black anodized aluminum radio delete plate w/ 3 gauge holes in place
of the radio. I plan on mounting the radio on the bottom where the ashtray is located.

I'd just chuck the plate; it's interlocked- should be fine.
I tried to use the short Energy Suspension mount without the plate, trying to get the transmission as low as possible without modifying the crossmember. The mount would twist without the plate. The instructions say you must use it. I didn't think so but it won't tighten up without deforming without it.
