Last night I cruised it out to a local car event. There were all kinds of classics and oddly enough, tons of people flocked to the Z-oh. Even the import guys were asking tons of questions about it. So far a Vortech'd Viper and a BPU++ Supra with a large single wants sum. Why is everyone always picking on me?

That was the camera. The car looks like it's been color sanded inside and out. It's the best factory paintjob I've ever seen.
"You don't have a clue. You couldn't get a clue during the clue mating season in a field full of horny clues if you smeared your body with clue musk and did the clue mating dance."
Today I sold the stock wheels. Tomorrow morning I'll make the call to CCW to get the new wheels headed this way. My headers should have been here Friday, so MTI has gotten a couple of shitty voicemails and emails.
Jakey, the F350 has been sitting next to the barn out at my parent's house since early this year. I parted all of the performance stuff out, except the exhaust and transmission. I haven't had much interest in the diesel thing right now. Sometime in the near future I'm going to put it back to stock and sell it, when I find time to work on it. The next diesel will be a two wheel drive standard cab F250 with a bobbed frame, tubbed and a shortbed...and of course, a Cummins. That project will have to wait until my '67 Camaro project is done, which won't be until sometime early next year. Since I bought the Z06, I've changed direction with the Camaro and now it can be more of a race car. I was almost done gathering parts for a 402 stroker LS2 with a ProCharger F1R, most of it was gone within a week of being for sale. Now look for a big inch big block with a sheetmetal intake, two Dominators and several stages of spray. It's time to get a little more serious.
BTW, the fucking bitch I brought back with me from Minnesota left me about 7-8 weeks ago. I'm currently accepting applications and I might have to head back up there an export another one.

Can't say I haven't heard of that before.

Yeah, I found it. It was right behind the steering wheel...and it was full.
Saturday night I made a pass out the local street race spot. With a soft launch it went across the line at 125+ and it was almost 90* outside, plus high humidity. This car should be a keeper if it's trapping like that bone stock with only 400 miles on it.
My neighbor is a Texas State Trooper. The first words out of his words when he saw the Z-oh were, "I'd sure hate to try to chase that thing." My reply, "Yeah, I'd hate to have you chase me too."
Matt, these are my famous last words to my Minnesota woman...
"You ain't the first whore I've ever been with, and you're not going to be the last."
Just like Captain McCall told Agustus in the movie Lonesome Dove.... "Well Gus....you always have your whores."

But isn't the Dipstick over on the passenger side? If I recall my wifes GA's Dipstick handle is also yellow. Oh and that power steering pump reservoir sure has not changed at all. Same look on the 3.1 v6's.
Also does that have the HUD that was in the GTP's? Trying to figure out what that opening on the dashboard behind the steering wheel.

The Kook's headers and 3" catted X-pipe finally showed up Tuesday. Wednesday morning I took it for a spin and it sounds pretty good. There's no rasp to it down low and up high it has that exotic car sound. The factory dual mode exhaust is pretty cool. Basically each muffler has two outlets, one flows through the normal baffles to give it a mellow sound and the other runs straight through with a cutout right at the tip that opens at anything over 3,000 rpm's. Nifty stuff. SOTP meter says it picked up power all the way across, especially up top. The tuning software/hardware should be here by the end of this coming week so I can lean it out a little and add a little timing. It looks like the cold air kit will be here around the same time. If all goes well the bottle will be on it and tuned as soon as the CAI is in, which could be as early as next weekend.
Who doesn't like a 3,100lb car with a six speed and 630+ to the wheels?
Most people just don't believe someone as cool as myself could be a dipstick.
Yes, the big aluminum dry sump tank on the passenger side rear of the engine bay has a level indicator with hash marks and everything. It's kinda handy.
After EclipseGST cleared every thing up. I figured it out on my own. Granted I am like this some times: But I also did this and answered the rest of my questions. Thank you and good day.
