That's horrible man. Hopefully you got things tuned this time around. Hate to see that happen again....

Thanks. Actually the car has been down since January (1st run of the new season... way to start it, huh?) Anyway, I ended up purchasing a 2000 GT engine (much stronger then previous and had a few internal things taken care of.... won't go into too much detail). But while the car was down, I took the opportunity to change quite a few things. It all started with.... well since it has no engine in it right now, let's convert it from 5 speed to built up automatic with nice stall converter, why not do a tubular k member.. hehe. Then tubular a arms, then the new shocks/struts, new rims/tires... it's like being a crack addict although I'm starting to believe this is much worse. LOL.

Oh well good news is...... I finally got the car started today! Kinda felt like my birthday in a sense cause I had been tracking down a stupid electrical issue that turned out to be the MSD digital ignition wiring. I suspect somewhere in the circuit it got pinched and caused a "no spark" condition. Oh well, it started today and will be on the road to recovery real soon.

I can't wait to run a few of my LS1 friends now My previous trap speeds were poor with only around 111/112. I'm hoping for much more with the weight savings and engine that's currently in her < fingers crossed>.

Sorry for so long... I'm just very excited to hear the thing run.

Cheers.

P.S. If you thought that one picture would make you cry, try looking at this for a while:



Here's a picture of the old K member (around 58 lbs):



Here a picture of the new tubular k member:



And finally, a picture of the new tubular A arms and coilovers on the car now:
