Going to go into the shop tomorrow around lunch time, i need to work on the timing again but its no big deal, i will try to get a video on both of my phones plus on my camera and hopefully one of them will not have the sound drown out too bad.

Here are two brutal videos that we took that night, both sound like **** and do no justice for what the car actually sounds like.

What is that radiator, fan and radiator hose brand if may I ask? looks nice all polished and match with the engine colour.

The radiator is the BECOOL Show & Go 1000HP direct fit. I will be perfectly honest, nothing about it directly fits in this car. It looks real pretty but for over $2000 looking back now it was a waste of money. The fans came with the be cool kit, they are all polished along with the electric motors. The upper rad hose is a cheap chrome looking flexible rad hose that i bought at a local speed shop a few years ago, i have heard from buddys that they are hard to stop from leaking but it works for now. Its a RPC (Racing power company) R7310.

Ok here is a new video from today, still running rough but i will let my dyno guy take care of that. Amazing throttle response, much better then the 350 i had before which was very surprising to me. Ordered up a drive line for it today, should know tomorrow how long it will be until i get it. Probably will be three weeks or so. Hoping to get the first drive in the start of June.

Sounds really good, but why is everybody looking so serious? I'd be grinning ear to ear!
Is there something amiss with timing, or the timing light? I was watching the light as it idled and revved, and either it's losing spark, or the light is cutting in and out?

Thanks for that. looks very nice though for the price. The radiator I am looking at will cost me about $1350 for a dual pass, 2 core, 1" pipes and dual spal fans. Will see.... Awesome vedio. When I heard it on the video I was mad as if it was mine. You are giving me hope man to work on mine Some times you need a little boost.https://camaroforums.com/forum/images/icons/icon10.gif
