    The Wilcox Corvette stuff showed up last week. Out of the stuff that showed up [Antenna/Stripping/tank cap] I've only screwed on the coolant overflow tank cap, lol. In my defense the girlfriend was horribly sick with the flu and I was picking up the rest of the operating slack at the house. However, after several problems with the privately owned DMV service center, I made it over to the state run office and got the car registered today. I can't even describe how screwed up and backwards the staff and management is at the private run DMV. My patience with them ended when they were telling me I needed make the CA dealer to fill out all new paper work from my state for selling a car and find the dealer from 2 transfers ago and have them write a more specific 'certificate of error' for a misprint on the title. Went to the DMV, got a new title, plates, and registration. I waited a lot longer, but I paid less and they didn't say a word about my unacceptable title or CA papers.

    I hoping to make some progress this weekend on the brakes and antenna. I'm also going to see what I can do about straight piping this resonator.


    Also, for you C4 guys. Is it just me or does the arm rest lid hopelessly bind against the seats. I see no way of fixing that without manually holding the seat side back while I open it.

    Other good news, it looks like my good buddy maybe buying my 1995 Camaro as is and I'll get to do a virgin build on this Corvette rather than swap motors. I have another guy that wants me to part it out and buy the 1995 as a roller, but I'm not sure what rollers are worth. I hate parting things out, but it might be my best bet to get the 1995 sold and out of here.

    P.S. What is a T56 conversion going for these days?

    The console is standard problem.

    1200-1500 for a V8 roller, 1000-1500 for the T56 stuff.

    Glad you got it tagged. Sounds like it was a nightmare!

    Another thing I'm trying to track down. I don't have a front license plate OR or license plate cover. I've found used ones online, but does anyone make a plate that has a grill, mesh, or something I could use for a cold air kit later? Perhaps they just cut up a factory cover?

    I found this one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/290824881516...84.m1423.l2649

    But it's pricey for being beat up. I found satin black ones from China for $25... might be the way to go if I'm going to cut it up later...

    But I'm also going to be taking measurements from a Lightning and Terminator to possibly take on a Eaton M112 retrofit, which would make the Ramair unnecessary. My machinist had one in the shop yesterday he was retrofitting onto a Gen1 SBC and it got me thinking.

    That frontplate ram air kit is not in production anymore, I've been looking for it for 3 months. I got an AB filler if you need it.

    Does he have a thread? I found a webpage with someone doing it, but wasn't sure if they were on here or not.
