Replaced all the valve stem seals on my heads, while the motor was in the car. When I removed the 15th valve spring, it was broken. This was 5:15pm Saturday, all the local stores closed for the holiday weekend.

Wow nice lift! I will have one soon. Today I got my ebay order of green grease caps. They also work on bleeder caps. Yes stupid part but still cool to protect the grease fittings. I started my aluminum fan shroud over. I screwed up and said lets make another. ......
So here its bent and edges welded with angle rivited in to add more ridgedness. I know this will be overkill but hey its my car. And while mailing of the swaybar bushings and links I sold on here (thanks again! ) I stopped and picked up some clips and hardware that will attach the shroud to the radiator once my brackets are weld on.

Finally found where the whistling sound at 2200RPM was coming from. Drove me crazy for months. Sounded like a vacuum leak all this time. Good thing I didn't start tearing the instal apart. Stupid Pump.

I got me a in better shape crossmember for the new El Camino cause the old one is way to crusty so I cleaned up the new one and gave a fresh coat of paint.

took my GP for a nice cruise tonite down some nice twisty 2 lane roads. With 4 hid's up front the roads and surroundings were nice and bright. When I came across a car doing the speed limit or less I'm not bragging but it takes no time to get around someone or a couple of motorcycles. The car is such a pleasure to drive I am lucky to have it. ...:)
