The mountain dew can was just left there by a buddy of mine. I just didn't pick it up before the picture. I just washed the car and will post pics later.

Where is this that thread, by the way?

Small update. Because I'm spoiled,I get money for my birthday every year. Usually about $100. If I can talk my grandfather into it, said money this year will go towards a pair of Purple Hornies for the Camaro. I love the Flowmasters, but I want something a little more Day 2.

I believe they are talking about this thread. You have to read down a ways to get to the conversations about the younger crowd.

It's late and I'm bored, so I figured I'll let you all in on a little project Pappaw and I are going to do this summer. For Christmas in 2013, I got a Logitech Racing wheel for my Playstation. I love it and it's really fun, but I don't have a stand. I'd wanted to buy a seat/ mount setup, but Pappaw had a great idea. He has 2 66 Chevelle bucket seats in his shed (was going to put them in his 67 to replace the bench seat, but never got around to it. I like the bench seat anyway), so we're going to make our own. Imagine this with a 66 Chevelle seat. BONUS: Already replaced the plastic shifter knob the wheel came with with an old B&M T-handle Pappaw found in his garage.

http://www.summitracing.com/parts/hly-120-102/overview/ Will this fit under the SS hood on the Camaro with a 1 inch carb spacer?

Crawled underneath the Camaro to look for casting numbers. Couldn't see anything thanks to being too nervous to actually get under it.

As for looking from the top, you can't see anything.

Time to learn how to get under it, the right way. My first lesson I can vividly remember . Had to jack up the car, get it on stands and make sure it was safe and stable. Start at the front on a creeper and head to the rear, turn around and come back to where you started. Head back to the tranny and stay ther for 5 min...this was a actual lesson at our vocational school. I did it under a 72 Camaro that was donated by GM Norwood after the strike. I was surprised by how many couldn't do it. I could have went to sleep under there... [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]
