Should I mention that I needed to get Chad's phone number from you?

I finally have an update!

There has been huuuuuge delays in getting wheels for my car. I got caught up in the Fikse disaster and switched to Forgeline. Sadly, I got caught up in another disaster with them, so they were nearly two months late also. All said and done it has taken me 6 months to get my new wheels, which are scheduled to arrive at the shop tomorrow. With the wheels I will be able to finally order my custom width 12 bolt.

In the mean time all the old parts are out:

Front sub frame and most of the torque arm parts are powder coated chassis black. Front sub is bolted in with the LS3, trans and headers.

Crazy busy week at work this week so I won't actually get to go see the car in person until next week :( Very interested to see how some of this has turned out in person.

Looking good. I really like that subframe.

Atta boy Chad. Nice to see progress.... man it's been a lot of wheel issues recently... sorry you got caught up in that.

Now Forgeline too?

CAMAROBOY69 01-18-2012 04:00 AM

Looking great. Sorry to hear about the 6 month delay wheel issue.

Congrats on the progress Chad. Looking sharp! Can't wait to see it in person. Interesting story about the wheels. I guess no company is exempt from the infamous wheel delay issue.

Been ordering more parts recently. Rather than trying to adapt my current exhaust I ordered a flowmaster kit since it appears the TCI cross members are notched for the Flowmaster kit and any tail pipes need to be custom anyhow. Somehow I think I may miss my old quiet exhaust. We'll see...

Brett at Fab53 finished up the Vaporworx retrofit install on my Rockvalley Stainless tank. I'm looking forward to getting that bad boy installed in the car.

And I finally got my dyno sheet from Mast Motorsports.

Certainly plenty of cars on here with a lot more power but this will be the highest power motor I've ever had.
