Nice load of goodies there Mike!

I would be interested in taking any of the duplicate fasteners off your hands if they go up for sale. (intake and starter bolts.) And anything else not being used. Let me know if you decide to sell some things.

Tell me about it. I'm tempted to take another two weeks off so I could spend some more time in the shop. Unfortunately we are short staffed right now and I don't think I can take any more time off until August or September.

Thanks guys. And Wayne you are so right...now I need the time to actually get some work done.

Thanks Eric. You'll be the first one I contact when I decide to get rid of them, which I'm sure I will.


I did get out to the shop for a little while today. Got the trunk bolted on and will start doing the gap work next week. I know some people have said that if the quarters were put on 100% correctly, than there should be no gapping issues. Well I guess mine weren't quite 100% correct and need a little work. Oh well, it's all a learning experience.

I put the front shocks on. I forgot to take some pics of the rears installed. I'll try to remember to next time I'm in the shop.

With all the new parts, I decided to put the new shifter on first. That way I could continue with the console.

With the MGW shifter, it will definitely hit anything in the cup holders

I think I'll end up putting them in front of the shifter. I'll mount the LCD a little higher up in the console and will put the Vintage Air controller under the screen

Definitely want to find some different cup holders. I would like to find some that have a hole closer to 3". The ones I have are just over 3 1/2" in diameter.

There is a good excuse to buy a lathe.....mill your own cup holders!:D

Mike, Now that you have the Clayton pedals, what do you think of the surface where you put your foot? does it seem slippery at all?

Ps. The cable you sent me looks great.:thumbsup:

Very nice Mike. Parts galore!:thumbsup:

I'd greatly appreciate the part numbers for these bad boys, I'm doing a coil pack relocation and want to have 90*/90* custom length wires, but can only find 90*/45* or 45*/straight.

Cheers!
Joe

Don't tempt me. I've seen a few on Craigslist and was like..hmmmmmmm what I could do with that

Glad the cable worked out. I haven't really looked that close at the pedal pads to be honest. I'll take a closer look and post a couple close up pics.

Thanks

Here's the part numbers from Summit:

TAY-83251 THUNDERVOLT UNIV WIRES RED
TAY-46067 LS1 BOOTS - these are for the 90 degree boots. I have the part number for the other angles at home if you want them. I'm just at work right now.

No that's perfect, I've been having a heck of a time trying to find LS1/LT1 coil-end boots that are 90* bend, the vast majority were 45* or straight but flexy, didn't know if I wanted to risk it and try to over-bend the 45* ones to 90*.

Thanks!!!
Joe

WOW, Mike you are an inspiration. You have given me the confidence to mini tub my 72. I am trying to figure out how much to narrow the rear end. I didnt read in your postings it you did. If you dont mind could you go back over wheel dimentions and how much you narrowed the rear end. I am looking to get a min. 15 x 10 or wider corvett rally inside the wheelwell.
By the way your Nova is looking awsome. Looking forward to more postings.
