Anyone have any suspension parts they are getting rid of? Lowering springs/shocks, torque arm relocation crossmember for t56 or adjustable torque arm?

Awesome progress! And that kid is definitely not right. I just saw a whole rear suspension setup in one of the FB groups. I'll keep an eye out on the rest of the stuff.

She's in. Hope I didn't mess up pilot bearing by tapping it in with a socket, the face got a little marred but felt like it spun ok. Hoping for loud noises tomorrow.

Well where do I start. After a whole weekend thrash, it runs and drives. https://youtu.be/vfiHO4Hq6UYhttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...2d66ce5948.jpg have a few things to sort, during idle video after a rather scary fast first drive, it popped a right side o2 lean code, unsure of why, o2 reading fine. Have some tuning to do, ghost spark retard at idle, shit like that. This exhaust is literally unknown, but it sounds REALLY good, like the first full catback on one of my own cars that I don't feel like changing nine times in a month, (ask @Ltconvert if I'm kidding, I've done that before). Car also Still has a vibration up high in rpm at high speed, but I changed flywheel, driveshaft, and trans mount, so it must be rear or pinion angle. The stock suspension is very worn and soft, and with this much power it's a little scary, and I haven't fully layed in it yet.
I have to say thanks to some people right quick.
-First, @popo8, @Ltconvert, and @harner, because with out you guys I wouldn't be making this post or have this car right now. You guys helped me out immensely, and I am forever grateful.
- Also have to thank @kitt8090 for deciding to cam his car, because that and my gf saying she missed the sound of the impala convinced me to cam this lol. Also for the fuel lines and other parts that saved my ass.
- @firebird_1995 for technical support and help with parts as well, I basically built this bottom end with your guidance over fb messenger, without your input and suggestions it probably would've blown up first crank, now it may survive a little bit of abuse.
- @NightTrain66 for answering all the questions i had and dealing with my general annoyance, you were right man, this cam pulls HARD. Happy I stayed with it.
- @Cahall And @American-Powerhouse for the happy hooker along with that cheap shortblock you had laying around. That's the rotating assembly in here lol.
There's many more, @Catmaigne, @Fastbird, @shownomercy (you softy you) just to name a few. This car is the epitome of a used parts who has what laying around build, less a few things like bearings, cam, and flywheel. Everything else basically came from this community, and that's why I love this place, and have an evil opti tattoo.
End rant.
