Thanks for the pic, we've been discussing this exact topic in the shop about moving the upper radiator return to the passenger side for this reason. We appreciate the tip!

Our Forgeline Wheels have arrived!!

These are their new Concave DE3C design.

18 X10s for the front and 18X12s for the rear.

Centers and inner rings are what they call their titanium finish. The outer rims are brushed aluminum with semigloss clear finish.

Sweet!!:razz:



We liked the way these have concave centers but still have a nice muscle car lip.





I went with the hidden bolt option just because I'm a clean freak and those would be a lot of bolts to clean around.

So maybie that means I'm more lazy than a clean freak???







Originally we ordered gloss clear over the brushed aluminum but Forgeline suggested semigloss clear might look even better. We took their advice. Glad we did.



Fronts have a nice lip too.



Trevor checking backspacing and clearances during mock up.

the standard dual pass radiators move the upper hose to the passenger side and if ordered for LS, also has a location for steam vent.

Were using the GM performance kit number 19259293 that is made for their LSA crate motor. The kit includes:

■Two oxygen sensors
■Two oxygen sensor mounting bosses (for installation in the exhaust system)
■A mass airflow meter
■A mass airflow meter mounting boss (for installation in the air intake system)
■A throttle pedal assembly (for use with the electronically operated throttle)
■A complete wiring harness with fuse box
■The programmed controller
■An instruction sheet.

The ECU and the fuse panel are going to be mounted under the dash inside the car.

Well it's time for me to pick the seats for Lou's Change. I've narrowed it down to these three candidates:

Recaro's "Sport" Seat with vinyl bolsters and suede center section.









Corbeau's "LG1 wide" in all black leather.








Arizen's "ST2" with inserts that match 69 Camaro back seat material.
