Goals for today:

• Simple Green the engine bay - DONE, just needs to be prepped for paint
• Tuck all the wires, hide HID ballasts, etc. - Ended up removing them so that the bay can be painted tomorrow
• Paint engine bay gray - On Tomorrow's To-Do List....it was too cold to paint today.
• Clean up z6 block, paint it silver, put on EBP valve cover. Cleaned up the block a bit. Once again, too cold to paint.

As a Parts update - I figured...i'll get a new intake..so I ordered the Whale Penis intake. Can't wait till that comes in. Also, I decided to get a light weight flywheel from fidanza. That, along with the exedy clutch has been ordered.

Also, we removed the rest of the AC piping/lines, they are all out. I also replaced my 10 gauge amp power wire and ground for 4 gauge, which the amp really needs.

Show me where you put them! Look at my tuck thread for ideas. I love the spot I put them in.

 

[Genuine Rolla]

Thanks guys.

I don't mess around and I don't have time to waste....

Not to mention, I really don't like long projects. I hate them with a passion. I like having a goal, and reaching it as fast as possible. I have the means and resources...just waiting on the parts to arrive.

I'll post up pics tomorrow, I forgot to bring my camera with me today.

Do it up man. The second I started spraying it down, i got motivated like none other.

You were running 10ga?! eek.

You're tellin' me..! ...And i'm running a Alpine M850 amp..which needs thicker wires. Now I think I can get the full power/potential out of the amp.

Nice dood, bet it'll feel great once everything is back and running. Exedy+Fidanza ftw
