Oh ok...nice trophies. I noticed them..but i figured they where all from other shows...well congrats on the trophy. For your dashboard..if you want to replace it..why not...but they have dash mats...which i will get myself sometime hopefully lol. any way..you can get the cover for the dash..i looked on ebay for it and they go for about $30 i think it was. (Yea i think you should too fix the dash before the driveshaft lol...your car is a show car ;)...)As far as NOS??my mechanic spoke to me about it a little while ago..he said it not worth it because miles on the car is too high...and honestly the car cant handle it. but i figured in time..maybe rebuilt the engine and go from their...but why rebuilt when you can replace it with a v8? but you should ask too...i'm sure your car is in great shape...check it out and maybe you can run low nitro. port and polish..i am not really to sure about that stuff..a professional or someone who knows their shit can tell you for sure lol...but i think its a nice mod...i quess if you want to go all out...and push for sure 300hp+.
no luck on the cutouts...... :( lol i'm waitin...i was lookin into clear bumper lights aswell.

Yeah I totally agree. When I had my V6 2002 Firebird. It looked great. Anytime I got a scratch it would be buffed or repainted lol, I do the same with my Mustang. Use to not, really be big into having a V8. I sold my firebired, because it was giving me promblems. Then I got my 2007 V6 Mustang. I'm still not really that big into V8's. But it would be nice maybe in a couple months or so to buy as a spare car. I want a Formula or a WS6 T/A. Just for fun on the weekends.

Oh, and I just had to ask..

LOL.

Hey wus up. Ok then that's cool..the fan switch for sure would be a good idea. the car will run great then.
Good news I brought the same Cutouts as yours today. Hoping to get them soon...and i cant wait lol.
Here's a site you can check out for the alternators. I know i dont need to tell you this..but be sure to look for one that'll fit and work for the car lol. I hope the site helps.

sry bro..damn computer froze.
my car was the same way..it heat so fast and never cool off...i solved that with a cold air intake...and 180 degree thermostat. it worked perfectly fine. but even still the intake should have dont the job. i'm surprised your car still heats. mine use to reach about..well a little passed 210. which i thou was bad. but now with the intake and 180 degree stat..it stay puts on 180-190..which is still good. if i let the car sit or just Cruz around..it would reach 200...but once i get on the gas it'll cool off. the manual fan switch sounds like a good mod and hopefully will help the car run a better temperature. i think it'll improve performance as well..at least i think lol. hey bro you ever thou about a aftermarket alternator..i seen one dude on this site with a chrome one..looks awesome. then their are other alternators that will improve the car performance..lol i'm sure u know that.
strut tower will look great. lol u couldn't resist on installing it haha...thats cool bro. the polished radiator cover is what i would like to see for sure. that's gonna look freakin cool. drive shaft is gonna be a nice upgrade..well worth it. well your doin a lot of upgrades to the car. they all sound great...mmm maybve i'll steal a few lol. but its cool what your doin. and goodluck at the car show...i think you'll bring another trophy home for sure. those older guys have a lot more time/money on their hand so it is tuff to compete with them.

oh man the intake is sure a difference maker in performance gain. probably the best. does it make a nice sound when you get on the throttle? so slp makes a good inake..no wonder there the best in performance parts for f-bodies..at least i think so lol. oh an the engine bay looks real cool with the new setup installed...the throttle spaces i'm sure also helped out in performance too. i looked and couldn't find one for my car :/ ......all in all..perfect 10. thnx for the tip on the cutouts. so whats next lol i forgot? i know you said you have something else comin in this week...or was it just the spacer and intake?...oh and before i forget let me know how the car is after driving it today.

well that's a good idea...once the engine "craps out" lol...it would be a good idea to rebuild it 100times better then stock. for sure your hit 300hp with no problem. that would be pretty sweet to have 300hp in a 3.8l V6 or 3.4L for that matter lol. so save up 3000 grand..or at least try lol. shits hard bro. i found out i'll pay over 300$$ for freakin installing my headers. :/ i'm just gonna get my cutouts and put them on..maybe in some time i'll hook up the headers. hey what size did you get for the cutouts?? 2.5 inch or bigger? i cant figure out if i should get the 2.5 or 3 inch pipe.
i'm gonna check that out...those kits sound pretty good. hopefully worth it lol.

yea bro do that for sure. "go all out at like you said". agian for your Firebird..its well worth it. that slp intake looks real cool...your car will go much faster. cant wait for the pics lol.
to get a faster 6er would be a dream for the v6fbodies. lol. i know that becuz i want a faster car myself. But with the mods your planin on doin are all great and you'll be faster in no time. but i quess if you really want to go all out with power...forced induction is the way to go. but thats like 2-3 thousand! thers a guy a blck over from my house..he has a custom S10. baddest and sweetest ride ever. he has a crate motor with like 400hp..which is pretty cool. he was tellin me that i should get one. but their to expensinve lol....but it would be a good idea for your car..since its a show car..but agian just too damn expensive. well bro hit those books man..ttul..enjoy the intake and let me know the diffrence in speed.

oh man bro..i had to go with the blck headers. the polished are real nice..really nice actually..but just too much money. Their about 380 alone...the blck headers are 230...150 difference. plus i'm just estimating the cost of the items. Any who...i think since your car is a show car..just save as much as possible and get the polished headers...but its up to you bro. Your step dads friend is pretty handy...since so you should do it..it would be pretty cool to have a custom throttle body. How will he do it? they dont make any throttle bodies for the 3.8L? Or maybe you can upgrade by installing one off a 5.7L stock. or you can try SLP. my bad dude..i just thou of all that now.
the 8 hrs at $9 does make a difference in pay day! its better for you. A bit of a bigger pay check..but its worth it for sure. oh man money comes in so slow and just so fast to spend!!! your right on that bro. these days you have to work like 2 jobs just to have money for yourself lol.
