Malitude is up and running

[camcojb]

Got the turbo back Saturday, and the ps pump showed today. Appears that everythings good now, no smoke at idle yet, and I ran it long enough to be smoking.

Swapped gears while the car was down because the set in the car had a very loud whine on decel; turned out the coast side was wiped out but everything else was perfect. Also found a stock 4L80E pan and have over 5" ground clearance minimum.

Pulled the wheels apart also in the interim, and had the centers powder coated silver. Looks way better to me, as I pictured a light colored wheel with the darker paint. I just wish this new camera took a decent picture; I've tried every setting, even called Kodak, and it just spits out poor quality pics. The car looks much better in real life, but here's a few pics to get a good idea of how it ended up.

Wow. Looks fantastic. Love the new wheel color in the light. The paint looks like it changes colors depending on the light - awesome.

You did an awesome job. Congrats. Looking forward to some video with the wheels rolling.
