Is that the shop floor I see?

Looking good Howard!! Like the seat choice. I'm thinking about some Recaro's myself. I wish I was as far along as you....

Wow Howard!! I need to hang out here more. Your car looks killer!

Great choice on the seats Howard. Are you doing the interior in a similar color, or having the seats re-covered?

Thanks guys!

It project can't move fast enough! The seats where a last minute type selection. I was selling the Viper T56 to guy in Long Island and he happened to have these seats for sale. He bought them for a 2000 Firehawk T/A and he wanted more flash! He installed them and never sat on them. We made a deal for the tranny and some cash...for me! Worked out great as I needed seats to finish the roll cage and he needed the tranny!

I just tracked my cylinder heads from AFR and they should be here Tuesday! Kind of bid deal for me since I have been waiting for these new LS1 heads for over 10 months. They are 1 of 25 sets that have been released. My pistons showed up today from getting hard anodized skirt coating and ceramic tops. Those where done by Embee in CA. Off to machine shop the spinning assembly goes. By the end of next week I plan on assembling the short block. I am still waiting for a set of custom L-19 head studs to arrive as well as the custom ground CompCam.

I tried getting a hold of someone at Chip Foose Wheels and no one ever returns my E-mails and they have no phone number to call!

On another note by bullet proof (I hope!) 4L80E tranny showed up today after being dyno tested before shipping. I'll post some pictures tomorrow!

Steve, wheres the paddle shifter????????
