I wish I was sleeping. Been painting the inside of my home and changing the carpet upstairs,while also working 50 hours per week at the plant.I WILL finish the Iroc this winter,even if it kills me.That's if we all don't get washed away this summer.Have never in all my days seen it rain this much during the summer.
May go up to Kemah this Sat.Anyone else going? Is it a good meet and worth the drive? Need some new scenery.Taking the 2010 Camaro as the 85 is down for repairs.What time does it start and is it still at Chick-Filet? LMK
Keemah is still going strong. I usually get there around 6:30 to avoid the heat.
Can't make it this saturday. But I am going to cars and Coffee saturday morning. you guys should go, its the best car show in town. I am meeting some people at JAck in the box on beltway 8 near Sabo, by the amc 30 gulfpoint around 7:30 am.

Jon, you get that thing in good running order yet? If not, what does it lack?
Got it running decent, just need to sort out the trans dipstick and front brake-lines (AC will come later). We had to drop the engine and tranny to the floor to get enough room to work with the trans dipstick. Since that's down, I'm putting in some nice russel an lines for a big new B&M tranny cooler and fixing an issue with the LS6 intake (the map sensor is always loose...going to tap it for 1/4" NPT and run a hose to the sensor).
You guys wouldn't believe the gauges I've got waiting to go into this thing. I'm waiting to post pics when they're in the car
I have been working on mine. I am almost done tomorrow the 14th I am going to the engine shop and getting a new set of heads for it, stock 305. I have them off so it is just a hurry up and wait thing. I got the interior cleaned up to near mint. So by this weekend coming I will be driving it.

no sleep here... that's part of the problem... been too busy to get anything done on the car. couple that with the fact that my garage feels like a blast furnace, and it's one camaro light summer

Yeah I wished I could get them from your partner we would be in a state were it takes a day and a half just to get from 1 side to the other. I am getting them tomorrow, a new rebuilt set for 170 bucks ready to bolt on. And a pretty good deal on a edlebrock preformer blasted clean for 70 plus shipping. A few more days and I will be back on the road.
