Thread: Black 99 GT[P] Coupe (Intercooler Install)

Yep got them done a couple of weeks ago. It was a pain to eliminate the crossbeam.

I just looked at a few pictures and went from there. It took a lot of trial and error thats why it took me 4 weeks to complete.
I got most my help from here:
Mini Morimoto H1 Projector Retro FIT ***EDIT*** WRITE UP!
Cleans Official Retrofit Thread. Pictures of Work. - Page 12

Keep in mind that the morimotos have been redesigned since these threads and the 97-99 housings are smaller inside that the 00-03 housings. My best advice is just be patient.

If I do another set for my dads car then i might do a write-up

Agreed on the tint I plan to get it done soon 35% all the way around. As for lowering due to the crappy roads around here and the fact that one of my friends lives up a switched back drive way. I might get some vogtlands but no lower (maybe I might change my mind) but the brakes need to be done badly.

sLpGPGT: I haven't found a set of wheels that i like yet. I'm looking for a plain 17'' or 18'' five spoke like on the new GTOs.

gtpeddie: I can't guarantee that I can get a set done in a reasonable amount of time since I work 6 days a week plus they are such a PITA that I really don't want to do another set but I will offer any help if needed. I can send you some detailed pictures if you want.

I got a L67 out of an '04 Monte Carlo and have been working on it for the past few weeks. I have done a complete tear down and replace all the gaskets. I also got a Gen V blower and installed it during this build up.

Engine when I brought it home:




After the complete tear down:






Everything cleaned up and ready to reassemble:






Assembly pics:

I finally got the engine swapped in. Some of the threads on here were lifesavers during this process (ex. the Gen V swap and Bills How to pull an engine).

The car runs great just a few minor issues due to old parts and sensors. I'm slowly going through everything and replacing if not upgrading.

Yes that is the stock exhaust but I am only running a 3.8'' pulley it is a MPS due to the hub being on the blower when I bought it.

I have been careful watching the KR and not pushing the car too much until I get headers. Exhaust is the the next upgrade on my list.

I am favoring the WBS headers so far. They seem to be well constructed, and by what I have read, fit pretty well apart form a few of the normal modifications that come with headers.

Awesome job on your Gp. I wish my engine bay was that clean lol. I subscribed.

I've gotten a little bit of work done on the GP this winter and thought that I should post a few pics.

Added:
05+ Mustang Wheels
W-Body Store Headers
Tinted Taillights
Braided Fuel Lines

I am getting a set of roof rails mounted tomorrow.
