I helped someone move and started repairing/ reinforcing the headliner board with fiberglass resin. I am starting with the corners and am probably going to do the whole back after that. I can’t wait to put new fabric on in it and finally get it back in the car

Got one of my shocks changed over to the coil over style shock. Gave the front end a noticeable lift on that side that is much needed. Unfortunately, the top bolt is covered in black paint and that has made getting it tight enough nearly impossible by hand. I'll be getting the impact on it in the morning when I can run the compressor.

Here is old vs new vs the ridiculously oversized box that they came in.

I spent money on parts today. Ordered Holley terminator x and a throttle body to match and got my new intake installed.

Waiting on a Holley X Max for my engine...Holley says next month next month. You might be in for a long wait. Everything coming out from Holley has been on back order and is allocated to older orders. You might want to check into the X Max if you ever upgrade to a 480LE.

It gave me the disappointed look because I've been neglecting it due to heat, kid being sick, then being sick myself. Maybe when fall rolls around. I need to get a/c in this damn thing. But that's not gonna happen until the LS swap happens.

I really thought about it but since that won’t happen anytime soon and the money I save from not getting the dbw and trans x max if I did do it I would be within about the same price point getting a good standalone controller. If I really want an od I might just go with a gear vendors.
