This past Tuesday I had to go put a water pump on my mother's Tahoe. I had parked my little car because the brakes were making noise. I finally did the fronts... calipers, rotors, pads.

I found where the noise was coming from...

Some of you may be familiar with my 71 Corvette shown below.




I sent it off to have some plastic surgery done. She's a little thick in the hips now! 3" front & 4" rear flares. Getting a new motor & transmission transplant as well. The LS3 and TKO600 are out!

I hadn't realized that you took the automatic out. What is going in place of the LS3 and TKO? LS9/T56 swap?

Finally changed the thermostat in my daily driver. What a miserable job, was reminded why I hate FWD vehicles. I have been putting it off since last November.

Had to put a battery in my truck. Replaced a bunch of rear suspension components in the GAGT. That car is getting new tires and a four wheel alignment Friday. Then, it's sold. I work much closer to home now, I can afford to daily drive my truck.
