Weekend Mods - PICS!!!
It was a long weekend that actually started on Thursday.
MODS:
1. Install ECS lowered radiator mount/frame
2. Install Dewitts radiator
3. R&R heads to replace lifters with Morel bar type
4. Get rid of the air bridge and replce with 4" tube setup
5. Install PFADT tranny brace
Would not have happened without a lot of help from Sneakleman, JACKS996, McLeod, Willfulone, Lowcash and AlohaC5.
Still come cleanup to do but we'll start some pics with a few that McLeod just sent me. Chip has some more I hope he'll post. Still some cleanup to do but here are a couple of pics.

All that wrench time, and I only got one torn fingernail, and one small cut. Could quite possibly be a new personal record!

Good weekend Kevin. I went to Detroit last weekend and had Matt at Vette Essentials do my seats/interior. My next project is the stereo. Know anyone local?

I spoke with Matt today also.
Did you see the Corbeau A4's I put in?Go with the DD mod for the stereo and never look back. There are a couple people doing the besel work here now if you're not comfortable doing it yourself. These guys are in Manassas and pretty good for the install.
