Yeah, my Dad wouldn't let me buy a Doge Charger at 16. He was right though.
I was offered a 1968 Charger for $800 when I was 15, my mom said no. 31 years later, i still give her sh!t about it because it was a real and original hemi R/T. Same on a 1957 Dodge Sweptside for $50.

I ran over something in the middle of the freeway in my '73 VW.
I fought them on it and didn't accept the lowball stuff.
I sent the adjuster 43 different comparable vehicles for sale.

They ended up sending me a check for $4,200 after I bought the car back.

Yo.
Checkit outtt!
A real-live, bonafide 3rd gen Camaro FACTORY OIL COOLER!
*gasp*


Yep. Rare AF. Somebody is gonna buy it!

This Camaro intake manifold was rejected.

You must be registered for see images attach


It was on the motor - LOL. :(
The other tuned port Camaro intake manifold I owned was also rejected.
It's an '85 perimeter bolts remember?
No schmancy valve covers then.

Could make that intake work but it would be ghetto A.F.
No.

So what's MY solution?
Simple!

All I gotta do now is find the correct intake specific to an aluminum headed Corvette , 88-92.
Sounds simple, right? :nono:
Hahahaha cry.

P. S. It's gotta be for sale too.

M-F! :mad:

Switchin to factory aluminum heads in a car that never had them _ sure is fun! :Nonono:
didja not consider the exhaust manifolds?
angle plugged #113s remember?
ANGLE PLUGS?!


plug wires?
EGR valve the same?

glad im not racing the clock!

Them there oil cooler parts might as well be made of GOLD! Awesome condition.

FOR. SALE.

Holla at cha boi!

Fun aint it? Glad Gary Camaro and I have been friends for thirty years. He's making a flippin SUPERMAN HERO JOB under the hood of that car. I'm really anxious and excited.
I originally bought the 1985 perimeter bolt setup to install it on a 400. It's been waiting it's turn.
A tuned port 40O CID IROC?
Wouldn't that be rad?.
A tpi 400 in a square bodied pickup?

Twist my arm.
