I just added a few pictures to an album here. I'm having issues figuring out how to add pictures to this thread without having them posted on another website. I'll dig around in the FAQs when I have a little more time.
Seth you have to upload them to a site like photobucket or flicker. The engine looks mean, I'm sure that thing is a lot of fun.

Congratulations!! Enjoy it to the max!

I just also bought a 2006 LMB Z06 about 3 weeks ago with 8500 miles to replace my 2002 Electron Blue Z06 that had 112,000 miles on it. And, once again, I find myself visiting the garage 2-3 times a night to just stare at it. Dang. The best part of the day is when I'm driving to and from work; or driving anywhere. Guess it's good that we're so easily pleased!! LOL

There are a bunch of other smaller things, but I'm having a hard time remembering them all haha.

I'll post what pictures I have on my phone soon.

With all of that work done to the motor, she's ridiculously loud. Thanks to a forum member, she'll have stock mufflers back on soon, so I don't go deaf riding down the interstate. If anyone is interested in the Stingers, let me know.
PM sent about Stingers.
