Cool ride - really like the LS5 - real stump pullers (as much torque as big brother LS6).

Hope you told him about his air cleaner seal.

Nope Steve, I could not find the guy anywhere. I was a very big show. lots of people everywhere. Of course there were other small odd things I saw in the engine bay. But it's still the real deal! Sal [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

That bugs me to no end. There's probably more resources about restoring Chevelles and Camaros than any other car and yet people continue to get this wrong. I attend shows locally and all over the country and I would guess 90% of the Cowl-induced cars I've seen (some six-figure restoration cars) have their seal install incorrectly (upside down/inside out). I have tactfully mentioned this to people only to see their car again at a later date still uncorrected. Long ago I installed a cowl induction setup on a friends '69 Camaro SS and noticed the reproduction seal out of the package was 'inside out' (probably the way it came out of the mold). Once I reversed it I was able to install it correctly. I'm not sure if this is why so many are wrong. Sorry for the 'vent' It just always bothered me.
