Got the third hood put on...

Thanks to Hylton for the trade. I like it alot.
I opened up the vents so they're functional.
Still not as much hood clearance as I had hoped, but it'll still be able to draw in cool air.

yeah, it's that one i got from Lester.

As for the other hood, it still needed finishing, plus, i couldn't see over the cowl. maybe thats why the other kid rolled his car?

Yeah, it's the turbo hood.

No prob. I must say that hood does look good on your car. You have to have a car with some '*****' to have a hood like that. It just did not look right on my wife's stock IROC 'vert.

Try to get the car together for the Tri-City Invasion. We will be heading to Luskville on the Saturday afternoon (Sept. 17). Just get yourself a trailer and don't worry about getting it safetied, plated, etc).

It'll be there. A trailer to go to the track would be awesome, if if someone else has one. i wouldn't be afraid of blowing it up again. Getting a tow home from Quebec is no easy task.

I'll be looking to take out some LS1's for sure.

I have a trailer in Guelph with my 92 1LE on it waiting to come to Ottawa. If I can get the thing here before the get together, you can use it.

Heheh, thanks Carm, but what about your car?

Your gonna have it put back together for end of season right?
I want to try chasing down your tail lights, even if it is a few seconds behind.

Actually I'll drive it. I'm more interested in what MPH I can trap, rather than ET. I know with some good tires, and disregard for the tranny I could launch pretty hard with the suspension work done, but considering I just finished it, i don't want to have to puit it back up on blocks for another 2 years again.

My car drives to & from the track.....Luskville anyhow. I trailer it to Montreal or Toronto, but here it drives 1 hr to the track.

As far as back on the road.....im real interested in building an 18* 434 sbc so i think i'll be ready for the early spring

Your also gonna have to add a 12 point and a chute into your plans with that setup.

Thanks for the offer with the trailer, I may take you up on it. I'm just paranoid of blowing it up again, but it should be pretty strong now.

When does Luskville close down for the season anyhow?
