Looks good Steve.

Thanks Edgar, should get the 3.8l decals this week, hopefully their the right size. Got a email from Jegs, hood isn’t shipping until 8-11. Oh well I can wait.

Got out the chrome 17x 11 ZR1s need tires since their 10 years old. Going to see how they fit before spending $320 for tires 315/35/17. Going to test fit them Saturday.

They fit fine, no spacer. Must have been because I had lowering springs before. I have 1LE progressive springs now . Going to order the tires this next month. Will post pics.

Getting my hood tomorrow, hopefully get it on Saturday, have to transfer my old hood stuff to the new hood and get my neighbor to help.

That's awesome Steve. Things are coming together for you.

Thanks Edgar, will post pics, still need to tune some more, will feel better having a solid hood, hopefully it fits good. Either it’s been too hot or we’re getting rain because of the monsoon season so hopefully soon I’ll get some tuning in.

Got it on today with help from my neighbor, needs a little adjustment but I like it.

Solves the clearance issue AND looks good? Wow! Good choice!

Finished my adjustments on the hood, pretty easy fits perfect for a aftermarket hood. Still waiting on my tires to come in so I can get them mounted.

Not getting the 315 tires for another 2-3 weeks just found out, but working on little stuff. Might get some tuning in depending on the weather.

[ssms5411]

Cancelled the order, been almost a month and they can’t even tell me when their shipping, I’ll wait until I need new tires.

[ssms5411]

It’s starting to cool down so when I’m done with my other mods I’ll start tuning again, hopefully 10 psi and more timing.
