Well I tried to fire up the car last week - and I got it running for a couple minutes and it was running like absolute garbage.

With the 60 lb injectors nearly being double the stuck LS2 injectors - it was throwing a ton of gas into the and out the exhaust.

So I decided to have the car towed up to the tuner as I didn't want to risk messing up the motor. They are tuning it now - and I should get it back next week - I really am looking forward to finally driving this thing!

Also before having it towed - I lowered the car down onto my race ramps and was able to get the rear swaybar attached - I will have to fine tune and readjust it after I get the car back.

Here are some pics of the car on the lift - and of the 3" Kooks long tubes and X pipe.








Also for my birthday - my girlfriend got a set of 2" tripod stands that I will be able to use under the lift - they are from Greg Smith Equipment.

They are made in China - and some of the hardware is pure garbage - I stripped one of the bolts putting it together - so I got some better hardware from Lowe's.

I have seen some people support entire cars on these - I know that I wouldn't - but I would have no issue putting a rear axle or hold up an exhaust pipe or two with them.
