Heat and insulation are a good add in ANYONES shop space!!!

It's 13* here this morning (gotta love mountain living!).

The heater's been on hold in the cellar for 3 years, I'm so glad it's finally in. Trying to decide if I'm going to use sheetrock or solid aluminum soffit for a ceiling. I think the soffit I can install (12'x16" sheets) but the sheetrock would be tough for me alone with the car and everything else that's in the garage. Cost will help with the decision.
At least I don't have to listen to the propane heater screaming while I work.

Yes Tony I need to get some type of ceiling up so I can get in touch with the foam insulation guy I met. He gave me a price but it was over a year ago. I hope it didn't go up too much it was a good deal and it was fire proof foam. If you lived on the east coast you could make some extra cash to spend on the Camaro. lol
How's the family and that Chevy dependent doing?

Yep if we were on the East Coast I would just send my crew your way and get it handled!

Family is great! Thanks for asking! The Camaro get love when I have time. Been working on it more as of late.

Glad to hear everyone is doing fine and your getting some time in the garage. I have no idea what to expect for a price to do the ceiling.

Prices vary with location. I have no idea what they are charging up there?

I understand, I meant I hadn't check anywhere yet.

Yesterday we installed the Hamburger remote oil filter mount on the frame right behind the radiator. I will be running the -12 oil lines to the filter then to the in radiator oil cooler and back when I make my order for my hose and fitting, soon I hope.


The next thing to try and stuff in there is the trans cooler in the white box in the bottom of the picture.

We tried to mount the intercooler pump but it didn't work out too well, the hose that goes to the heat exchanger was going to interfere with the radiator so we're moving the bracket.


Last week I installed the DBW pedal using the GM factory bracket that came with the controller and the DSE mount. It looks good, Thanks icemanrd19 for the pictures.

pedal looks good. You were in the same boat as me. I already have the bracket so i should use it. In the future you can always switch to the other pedal assembly. Looks great

Thanks.
I've been looking on Craig's list for some rollers for when they do the paint and body work. I saw these BMW 7 series close to home and figured they could be used then sold when I'm done with them. ( They may have antique status by then. ) I brought one in and tried it on for size. It fit right on and barely cleared the Z51 brakes. I had to knock the weights off. They'll work fine and look stylish doing it. LOL !
