I plan on making a build thread eventually. I am waiting till I get more of it completed before I start putting my build up.
Since I bought used tires just to get a look of the car with 19's on them I really need to get lowering springs on it. The front wheel is flush. But the back has a little poke. and ut doesn't help I got wide 285/35/19 on it. I'm gonna get 265/35/19 size next time.

Fixed my valve covers and stopped this oil leak for good (at least until the new motor goes in). Cleaned the entire intake manifold up while I had it out. I had to chisel all the carbon out with a flat head screw driver, and even then four cans of brake cleaner barely dented it. I spent two hours on the IM by it self but the throttle response improvement made it worth it BIG time!

The only other thing that could have made a difference would have been the spark plug holes got cleaned up, but I didn't have an ignition miss before hand so it's not that.
It would be like throwing a light weight pulley on in my comparison.

Last year, i went through like 3 cans of throttle body cleaner on my whole intake system after the tb, like the y-pipe and the runners. and that STILL didn't get all buildup off. that stuff's icky.
installed new rear swaybar endlinks finally.

nah, the endlinks are just heim rod ends that I ordered, combined with lowe's bolts/nuts/spacers/washers. and the lca's are stock, albeit shortened. because the lca's were shortened, the stock endlinks were at an epic angle before, so I had to do this to correct that and so that I'm not constantly worrying about bent endlinks.
