My '05 V - Summer mode engaged



Re: My '05 V

CS mounts sold.

seeing if my parts guy can get the UMI mounts cheaper than i can, otherwise i'll probably order those tomorrow.
 
Re: My '05 V

i know, right?

i'm gonna be good and poor coming up shortly here. i am already since i'm doubling up on my car payment and dropping another $500 on the mortgage every month (by myself). my bank account looks horrid right now.

****. spending money i don't even have. buy now, pay later, 'murica.
 
Re: My '05 V

i've given the go ahead to my parts guy to purchase said parts list. still waiting on a price for the motor mounts, but those will be purchased, too.

seems like the longest lead time item is the driveshaft, 3-4 weeks. ouch.
 


Re: My '05 V

Just a side note..makes sure you replace your plugs after you get the manifolds off. And do not use felpro gaskets. Re use your gm steel crush ones. I would also buy new bolts.
 
Re: My '05 V

i'm getting an ARP stud kit. no more bolts.

and i'll just get a set of new GM gaskets just in case.
 


Re: My '05 V

yeah, it's fast.

and got more money into it than i have into my house, probably.

i hate that they converted it to auto, though...
 
Re: My '05 V

there's another guy putting together a similar single turbo setup, but he's keeping the manual. he also is keeping his pretty well full interior and all, keeping it a street car. i think i'll like his car more.
