How can someone look past the beauty to see background...
It's like looking at a pic of an absolute stunner, call it dream chick, nude and looking at the landscape behind her.

so i was at the wreckers getting something totally unrelated to the ls conversion (mangled my booster bracket yesterday, sorry no pics lol) when i walked by what was left of a vp ss. actually never seen an ss anything at pickapart.

this ac pipe has had its rubber hose portion cut but we might be tig another hard line to it. anyway i basically got it for free (5 bucks or something) so couldnt hurt to take it home. fits under the cruise module perfect too, and should clear the radiator fans and such.

going to attempt making a custom rocker mounted coil bracket. $22 for the steel it will either work or wont well see. heres the idea behind it. (need to get away from the booster).

clamp stock bracket down and pilot the holes with a drill. trace around it with a sharpie.

the coil closest to the oil cap will stay in the same position, just going to move the other 3 forward.
