Weekend Update For 5.17.08

Posted on 19th May 2008 by Tails in The Car Has Arrived

Yep I know. Been a few weeks since the last major update. Not much went on other than taking care of little things waiting for parts to show up. Got my LS7 clutch, PP, master, slave, and all the lines in this past Fri. Also picked up an LS6 intake and coolant pipes from a member off LS1Tech. It showed up a few weeks ago. One of those things I ran across a good deal so I couldn’t pass it up at the time.

Renee and I went ahead and decided to go with the Firewall forward, bigger passenger footbox, and bigger driver footbox. Now it was only a few inched but after we set the seats in and sat down those few inches made alot of difference. Also the floorpans were thicker material and that made it feel alot more solid. Here’s some before and after pictures of the weekends activities:
