350tpi in!!!!

So the 350tpi is in, swapped over steering brace and there wasn't even one that was on this car before. Swapped over the bmr strut tower brace, panhard bar and trailer arms. Car runs great. The only thing not working is the speedo. We swapped over speed sensors and the thing doesn't work. Who knows. We'll figure it out.

Here's some pictures from the day...

Re: 350tpi in!!!!

We also swapped over the dual cat exhaust. Had about 1/2 inch clearance with the factory subrframe connectors. I have to give major props to my co-worker and freind Kevin Suazo for busting his *** to make this happen. I played the role of the beotch and he made this happen. Never would I think that I would have a 350 tpi 1992 Camaro Z28........ But i ****ing do!

what a piece of junk. how dare you waste money on that. for your penance you need to deliver it to me and i will keep it out of your sight so you will not be tempted to drive it. oh, i will need the keys too. got my own girl.

that was a good find - i was thinking about one too. verts are always hot rides.
