Take a hint from Lance (Blue502) let people know your car is an SC, its more impressive that way.

I guess the accident was blessing. (Caviler=ugh.) Just joking. Its a good ride though. All except the interior, if you had those pieces made out of billet it would probably look pretty good.

i'm glad ramairz that you didn't get offended, that wasn't my point; and you saw it precisely.

keep up the good work and if you need any help on the airbag subject email me as i've looked into it extensively and i'm sure i could help.

Man your car is sweet! The only thing that I think would make it look better is if you blacked out your parking lights and the little lights in front of the tire. I did the same thing to my car and I think it looks much better. Once you start going to UCF you'll have to bring your car to the Waterford show so I can check it out in person.

If they made the interior pieces in Billet, I would have gotten them, lol. I love the look of billet aluminum, especially in the inside. But I can't find them anywhere. And I know I could get them custom made, but that's not a priority right now. Maybe later on down the road. The blackout idea has been thouht of too. But I found some clear side marker lenses to replace the orange ones, so I think I'll get those, and black out the other lights. I'm also thinking about my rear ones too, or having some custom lights made. I've been thinking about going to the waterford lakes show, I'm on the CFFB mailing list. I've been waiting to get some other stuff done to it, and when I do wanna take it, things come up. I'll be up there soon though. Oh, kandied, can you give me some of the info you've found on airbags. I haven't been able to find a company that makes them for our cars. I talked to AirRid Tech, and they said they could custom fit me a setup. Lemme know what you've found please. Oh, this question is for everyone. I just found a 454 for sale near me, and I am thinking about buying it. Will it fit inside my engine bay without having to cut anything???? I'm thinking of getting it and rebuilding it. Then drop it in the Ol' SC, hehe Blue502, could you tell me how your install went. Thanks alot.

I got the hood from a place called US Body source here in Florida. There website is www.usbody.com, it cost me about 650 with me picking it up. But I had to pay tax since it's here in florida. I just looked at the site, and now there price is $649, you'd have to pay shipping unless your here in florida and wanted to pick it up. Hope this helped.

Blue502 hasn't got the engine in the car yet. He also just purchased an IROC project car, so who knows when the big block will get installed.

BTW, your car looks great I wouldn't change anything except swapping the spoiler for the '91-'92 Z28 spoiler.

'91 Camaro RS - TBI 305 - medium garnet - '91-'92 Z28 wheels - leather - all power options (except power seat) - t-tops - Clarion head unit - Pioneer 4way 200watt 6x9s - Rockford Fosgate Punch amp and 2 Fosgate 12" subs - Edelbrock open element w/ K&N filter - Random Technology highflow cat - some free mods, more coming soon...

Hey RSFreak, thanks. I got ahold of the 454 guy, but he wanted 400 for nothing but the block, I figured the money I'd soend getting it togther, I could buy a new crate engine for my car. Back to the drawing boards, lol. Yeah, I should have the spoiler on and painted in the next month or 2, it's my next mod.
