Default So, it begins!

Center bolt valve covers arrived from Fred Beans. The first shipment for the H/C setup. A&A stage 2 heads with 921's on the UPS truck now. Comp 230/236 112 +2 cam on the way. Misc other stuff on the way. Pulley in the garage, Shaner and Dynatechs on the car. May go ahead and do an LS7 clutch and flywheel at the same time. Still trying to decide on the clutch.

Install in a week and half.

I'm getting pumped!!!!!!!

OK - so Iv'e decided to do the LS7 clutch and flywheel. I don't think my stock clutch is going to last long with the new H/C

This is Gene... thanks!!!

Hey Chris... guess what... I got a little something in for you from UPS today. It looks like an LS7 intake. Now that we made some smoke with the shocks, maybe we can work with the intake/heads and make some posts!
