Almost guys. Almost got Epic going tonight. Spent most of the day with her getting hoses and wires and belt and etc all where they needed to be. The tranny temp sensor was busted, got that replaced. Smog pump on, changed her oil, put the new tail-lights and rear marker lens in (thank you Drake) and put the stock intake on. All in all i was ready to go. The sun was almost down and I was ready to bring today to a very happy ending. Starting putting the coolant in.... and there was a leak. In one of the heater lines. *sighs* not a hard fix but a fix nonetheless. I had no more daylight to work with so i had to walk away. This Saturday i have to do some bull s with my family so i won't be able to tackle this till next Wednesday. I'm sorry guys - i was so ready to post something saying "Epic says hi" but alas... she's going to be alseep for yet another week.


Unless i quit B of A tommorw. Hehehehe

dude grant, before you do, go to autozone and buy a throttle return spring. thats busted and if you dont replace it you'll have the same problem as before.

I'm looking forward to Wednesday... providing the rain lets up i will fix that leak and get Epic running. I will be ordering my second nose piece (from a differant comapny) either tomorrow or Wednesday. I am expecting the headlight brackets and header panel sometime this week. Then i can get the headlights mounted up. Chad's CAI should be here anyday now. Um.... yah. Lets see what else. Once the nose piece comes in then i'll take that and the new fenders over to my body shop and wth my tax return get them painted. Then she should be road worthy.

By the end of next month i should have my cowl hood and hood pins. That will be fun. And hopfully i will have enought saved to where i can get it painted WITH the stripes. Other wise it'll have to be primer black for a while. Anyone know or recomend a specific type of hood pin i should go with?

Pics from last Wednesday....
