Sweet! I too plan on doing the LT1 intake swap. How much did you're conversion run you? I like the photochop of the car, nice color choices and layout.

thanks! well the intake i bought from s10wildside (tgo member) and with it i got the fuel rails, some hoses, and vaccum lines and the remote mount wiend t-stat housing for 437 shipped. the fuel lines are gunna run me about 125 and the AFPR is about 100 and then i had to take the intake to my machine shop to have the coolant ports repositioned to the rear of the intake thats about 60 bucks for that. um and i bought used LS1 injectors for 80 bucks shipped (LS1tech.com) great buy. with the setup im hoping for a 450 hp motor and at LEAST 300 at the wheels who knows though i got a 700r4 blah...

i had a local guy sew together the strips you can buy pre-cut. the come in sections, like when you look at one of the seats, all the seams designate different sections of material. he sewed together all of those and put it on the seats with new padding too.

not sure where he bought it from sorry!

i hear ya, the owner before me was a fatty and the whole middle seam on the drivers seat was ripped

only cost me $400 for him to order the leather, sew it together, and install it along with installing the carpet that i previously bought too and that's ALL the seats not just the drivers side
