Here's a few pics of the engine, not real clean right now unfortunately. Don't mind the IAT sensor, that's not it's permanent spot. Just need to finish up some wiring and tie into the new maf's IAT built in

Looks really clean! I can definitely tell that you've got a lot into this car.

I love the way tinted headlamps look on these cars. It reminds me how much I need to do this to mine.

I'm not sure if I like the LED's in place of the fog lamps. I've thought about doing the same thing to my car but can't decide on it. What headlamp bulbs are you using?

Have you taken it to the strip yet?

What did the Joseph Abboud cars get? Interior modifications? And do I spy 01-ish STS wheels?

The 2001 JA got different exterior color combo's, but interior stayed the same. Near ones past 01 got two tone seats along with the exterior colors. Yea, the wheel's are caddy rims. Had them last year but sold them last month. Bought another set of rims, hoping they work good.

yeah SLP offered packages with a few appearance mods and better suspension. Also:
GSX's got a 3.5" pulley and I think only LSX's got 1.8 ratio rockers.

It's pretty awesome that they had that as factory... I wish they put that in the L32s to freshen them up a bit or something.
