Installed the GM CAI -had a bunch of rewards to pay a good chunk of it. Looks nice, but minimal 11 HP gain.

A HP gain is a win.  Not like you spent money on the intake and didn't get any increase at all.

Got my aftermarket fuel filter for my 59. Made a plate and mounted it for installation. I will install the AN fitting's on the truck tomorrow as well as filter.

Drive the Camaro around today, just for random stuff. Restaurant, movie, stores, etc. Had a total of 3 Camaro's from 2014-2019 parked next to me today, way out in the no door ding sections of parking lots.

Did these in the summer but I just saw this thread.  Replaced the steering wheel, added a center console with cup holders and replaced the seats with Corbeau LG1's.  I need to a get a pic of the seats and post them.  Yea, thats in my LS1 swapped 91 Mustang.

Need to wash mine to get the brake dust off. Yesterday drove it around. Going to get the door sills plates replaced soon, the C is starting to become detached, like so many other have seen.

 

Fixed the Nav screen rattle. GM really botched it, NO foam anywhere where the plastic parts meet(my old GMs have had that) and there is a cavity where the bolts for the screen attach, so it's easy for them to get in the wrong spot.

One of my best friends got me a power steering rack for my Cadillac for Christmas, so I have a project now. It will be so nice to have power assist again. The slop in the old rack is absurd. 

 

The nice thing about fixing up a 23 year old luxury boat is that there's a lot of them people are letting go for cheap, so parts are not hard to come by. Days off to go get one in a nicer climate, now those are a rarity.

 

At least with my incentive at work I'll have plenty of dough for travel.

Went to get the new doors sills. They were supposed to call with an update on the second, still waiting, I called today the person that I talked to was shocked I haven't been given an update yetand it can't find my service advisor, or the service order for the parts.

 

I called back after 6 hours because I still haven't heard anything and she confirmed the guy is there, and told me she's going to get this to a manager.  So they've got one great employee there at least.

Picked up a tee fitting to splice the PCV valve line into the brake booster vacuum of the '56. The Air Gap intake doesn't have an available port to use so this will have to do.

What are you running for fuel delivery? Carb, FI? I usually tie into the non-timed carb vacuum port (usually the lowest one on the body).

 

BEAUTIFUL ride!! :thumbs:

    • Because that is IDIOTIC, much like this question. They've already been forced to do it by past administrations - why would you roll that back when it's a GOOD thing?  WHO IS ARGUING FOR LOWER MILEAGE???? 😂  NOBODY IS!!   I'm certainly not! What I want is RELIABLE vehicles again that are worth the price paid!    I don't get your logic here ...   In 2003 I paid $2,200 for our '86 Grand Marquis. It's STILL running and I've never been inside the engine, aside for the timing cover since it was leaking, so I threw a new timing set in since that makes sense. Transmission is ORIGINAL. Electric pump in the gas tank is ORIGINAL. Rear end is ORIGINAL. I'd have to hit my head REAL hard to want to pay $60k or more for a car that still can't come close to the comfort, seating and storage space, or reliability of this one. Nothing is even in the ball park! Hundreds of thousands of brands and models have been built and sent to the crusher while this one keeps on going!   https://postimg.cc/Z9XRrCSg   I've got a whole fleet of cars, motorcycles, and a truck close to this age for summer and winter. No one could pay me enough to buy anything built this century. I have zero use for any it.
    • Since I'm the one who has to fix them when they break, I'll take vehicles over 30 years old all day, EVERY day, over ANY modern crap. Have you attempted any repairs on anything built after 2006? It's a friggin nightmare, and gets worse the newer the model year.    If I had the will or desire, I can make any car of any age outside of a Model T (I don't have THAT much will ...) just as powerful, comfortable, and have all the tech the new stuff does, and get pretty close in mileage, too. I prefer SIMPLICITY. The less the vehicle has, the less to fix WHEN it breaks, not IF.   I'm glad you snot-nosed punks don't like them. More for us, plus that keeps the prices from climbing more than they already have.👍
    • Bringing this thread back on topic. I just noticed the incredible lack of bright chrome across the entire new lineup. Even the Denali has tinted the brightwork in the grille and has none elsewhere. None of them have chrome bumpers. As far as I can tell there aren't even chrome mirror caps. I'm curious if this also happens out back? Are there no chrome rear bumpers either? This is quite the departure for GMC.
