Okay!!! so everything is basically done! The batteries all done and in the trunk. the STM oil cooler is on, the only thing left to do are the gauges which should be 1,2,3. So if everything goes good! Which i hope!!!! then it should be started tomorrow! "WISH ME LUCK"

Here's a couple more pics.. I still have to put on the cam gear cover, spark plug cover, heat sheild, SS bolt kit and put in the oil catchcan. I also plan on buying a STM coolant tank and power steering reservoir, Green fuellab FPR instead of the Aeromotive FPR so it all goes together better, a Nice aluminum cover for the fuse box and a strutbar.























Also bought a pair of taillights.

So guys i dont get to start my break in :/ but i do have 20miles on the motor . i decided since my car is an 03 and the paint wont last much longer i am going to repaint my whole car instead of just the random pieces. i may keep it TB or go with a white im not sure yet but i will figure it out. She starts getting naked tomorrow
