Yeah i will definately be hooking mine up i just dont wanna screw anything up in the process. 77nomad, what was your purpose for buying that MSD cap i believe its called for your car? Im just wondering why i couldnt buy the digital module and replace the **** inside my cap? If you cant tell i have never worked on ignitions before...EVER.

Hopefully i can stay motivated on my car again like i was last year, i need to burn some tires and overpriced gasoline

Really what happened is I bought a kit. Before they had the HEI module they had a kit that had the coil conversion. It came with a 6AL, Blaster 2 coil, the cap adapter, and a coil wire.

Here is the exact one I have. PN 8500 I would buy the other one if I were shopping for one now. It looks much better and holds the wires down, not like I have ever had one come off.

I tried this months ago with no luck so here i go again.

Heres a clip of my camaro the day i pulled the engine out. I just wanted a little reminder of what it was like with the 350.

You wont miss the 350 once you've got that new engine sorted out!

One thing i definately wont miss is the electric fuel pump. If i do run my nitrous setup im gonna get a different pump that isnt so loud. You can really hear the pump at the start of the video.

On a separate note, my stock rotors were 11" ones. The Wilwood big brakes have been ordered 12.88" drilled and slotted rotors, 6 piston calipers. Now i need to swap out the 12.19 Wilwood discs on the back so they look purdy like the fronts.

Those brakes will separate your retinas from your eye ***** when you dump the anchor on that beast.

Just had a look back through the my thread and noticed i never posted this pic up. It was sure nice to get the hoist after all the hard stuff was already on the car haha, oh well. We have a sweet double ram tranny jack too that we bought after i swapped an NP203 in my Toyota truck too.

I guess it takes doing something the hard way to make you go and spend the money to do it the easy way.
