Call me a slacker, lazy, etc. Its Mid may and I have a shit ton to get done to the Z28. I just finished with this whalloper of a semester at school and now I'm gettin to it! You know the deets, heres what I gotta do:
Remove stock catted y-pipe, exhaust manifolds, and AIR system (delete).
Install the LPP stainless longtube headers and off road y-pipe. <---- shitshow!!! sent back and bought pacesetters and put those in EPIC FAIL!
Remove intake manifold, remove EGR system (delete), bolt on the block off plates and paint the intake black and polish the fins.
Tap a line for my mechanical oil pressure gauge.
Re-install and reseal (fixing rear AND front intake manifold leak)
Clean up cluttered wires and basically make the top of the motor look nicer.
- Get some different valve covers and put those on.
Run the lines and wires for the oil pressure and coolant temp gauges.
Take apart the "new" 3.42 rear and install new axle seals and bearings.
Wire brush the shit out of it and paint it all black.
Get a rear diff cover and plop it on.
Then just drop out the old 2.73 rear and put the new one in, connect all the brakes back up and put the catback back on, then mount the sexy CME valence and tips and make up some pipes to work with it.
Finally plug the laptop in and with tuner c.a.t.s. remove the codes for the egr/air delete and calibrate the speedo for the gear change from 2.73's to 3.42's. and according to Pizza I have to change the shift points... hmmmm
