MikeNice 03-09-2010 11:32 PM

ILuvPizzaTimes10 03-10-2010 12:05 AM

how hot did it get and for how long?

kaboom 03-10-2010 12:13 AM

hood looks great cant wait 2 see it on the car.
i was gonna say it looks hot but after reading the rest i opted 4 something different. good luck

MikeNice 03-10-2010 12:17 AM

it was JUST under the red mark, and i want to say it was probably for a couple seconds...what do you think?

MikeNice 03-10-2010 12:18 AM

I didnt smell any coolant and the car is running fine, I started it after cool to move it to the back of my driveway...what do you think pizza? whats my chances its safe?

MikeNice 03-10-2010 12:18 AM

id say your good. you do have ARP bolts holding it down. gunna be hard to lift a head from heat with those. and the gaskets you used are Incredible. So id say get that shit straightened out with the WP and drive it.

MikeNice 03-10-2010 12:21 AM

excellent. im glad to hear some nice words to ease my pain lol.

MikeNice 03-18-2010 04:25 AM

So I got the hood and it doesnt fit so well...I have seen pictures of it on the previous owners car and it fit perfectly. I think my car may have been in an accident...but Im pretty sure tomorrow I will be able to get it to fit OK with some tweaking. Only problem is I am missing the bolts for all the latch hardware...anyone know know the sizes or a place to find them?

Navy01z 03-18-2010 04:30 AM

No lie man, it took the bodyshop 2 days worth of tweaking to get my hood where it is now and its not perfect but damn close.

Navy01z 03-18-2010 04:30 AM

And uhhh where are the pics?????

MikeNice 03-18-2010 04:31 AM

yeah, any tips? im a bit angry cuz some paint chipped / rubbed off where it was hitting...grrr

MikeNice 03-18-2010 04:31 AM

lol no pics because we took my buddys truck to get it lol, if I can get it fitted OK tomorrow then there will be pics!

Navy01z 03-18-2010 04:33 AM

No tips man. I wasnt there for the install. All I DO know is they made it fit BEFORE they painted it so all they had to do after paint was bolt it in and lin it up side to side but the body guy got all the tweaking out before paint.

*LS1* Queen 03-19-2010 10:30 PM

dont feel bad happened with my hood too...they shouldve been able to line it up better. If the front fender is tweaked it can throw it off but it shouldnt be drastic where its rubbing that bad. U should be able to find bolts at a part store i think they r 13mm but not 100%. Good luck with it.

I got a pin on sunoco $400 and its urs,i'll even drive it to ya

MikeNice 03-20-2010 03:31 PM

MikeNice 03-22-2010 10:24 PM
