Good job, Ed. The motor really does look old school. I think a lot of people aren't going to realize right away it's a modern LT4.

Greg, it will be at the shop, but it is going to SEMA first before any road trip. I will be taking my 2nd gen Camaro on the tour.

See you in a few weeks. The tour is going to be over the top. We have some really cool places to see and a great group of people going on the tour.

Got all the window trim in, what a job. Door glass and trim is not my favorite. Dash and console are next.

Ed

Mike, Here is the Dist in the motor. I did remove the Opti-spark and will run the standard HEI Dist with Coil.



Also got the Lizard Skin installed on the floor. Little Dynamat and some insulation and ready for Carpet.



Adding the Tach to the Dash and working with Classic Instrument to build custom center console gauges as I do not need two fuel gauges.

Enjoy.
Ed

Got drivers seat done with the new foam and hounds tooth seat cover. This should give it the original look but with the new wrap around foam support.



Now I can get the shifter and console mounted.
