Just a quick wash. Braved the Texas heat and some giant tweaked monster fly wasp hybrid that chased me around the driveway.

Drove it. Found some low speed twisty roads, which is all we have around here and went out for a few hours.

Put a bigger transmission cooler on, 12x12x1.75". Hopefully this will help the heat on it..

I wired in the axxess xsvi-2004 & did the magic voodoo spell to get my RAP & amps all working.
Then put my door sill protectors on
then got these in from fedex
Then removed my intake & changed my oil pressure switch.
Then disassembled my EBCM, soldered it, & reinstalled to fix that problem.
Then put everything back together and cleaned the engine bay some.
Now after putting the intake back on, my ac only blows out of the defrost vents... i posted in a thread here
