Update: New Mods!
Well it took awhile but I finally started getting some more work done to my car.I did the unthinkable and painted my "salad shooters" black.I think it turned out ok.Now i brought a lot of new parts and this week will be even more parts coming.I want to get some underdrive pulleys, cam and lifters electric wp, slotted rotors and brake pads.Now my big project this week is pulling the tired lt1 and do a rebuild depending on the condition of it.

The wheels look much better though. When you're driving I'm sure they'll look awesome.

thanks yal! I used the dupli color paint and the hoist is kinda lame but my brother just used it to swap motors into another car.I already got my motor loose so I will be having mine out hopefully this week! Yes chad that is a blower i got from a junkyard with the intercooler and piping. It would be cool if i can get it hooked up to my car!

I hope you're not serious about the blower idea..couple problems with it-
First- its a roots style which means good luck trying to make it work on your car.
Second- I doubt it would provide enough CFM to be worth all the hassle.
Don't mean to rain on your parade, but I wouldn't waste your time on putting that tiny blower on your car. You might see 3 lbs of boost when you are all done, thats worth about 35 hp- the money and time can be spend elsewhere to get much bigger gains..
