The Holley stuff looks clean. Nice updates!
It’s a balance and I get it. My problem is that I only see imperfections and want to chase what can’t be caught. Ugh.

Thanks. It is a nice step up. My one dislike is that the fuel rails have the Holley Logo on them. Hate that. They aren’t paying me to advertise. Jerks.

That’s what they are for! I am lucky that the Vegas weather allows me to drive pretty much year round.

I am not. I’ve asked two different mechanics and both stated I don’t need one. I am certain there are those who will disagree and I’m sure it wouldn’t hurt to do so. I’ll send a few pics when it gets home. Remind me if you don’t get them by the end of the month.

That is a super nice Camaro! As others have said.... great to see you actually drive it! 10K+ miles a year is what these RestoMod/ProTouring cars should see . Hoping to be driving mine a lot when it gets done or at least driveable later this year.

I too suffer from this problem my friend. One of the reasons I don't do paint and body work.

Two trips to Scottsdale AZ and Three to SoCal!! With all the restrictions this past year, the car helped me keep busy. Money well spent.
