The best part? We used the SS Camaro motor and did a cam swap/DOD delete, and there was still a lot of room in that engine bay. He's old school, and has a mid 50's Ford pickup with a blown 392 hemi. He's seen the Maggie on my car, so low and behold, we wound up putting a 2300 on top.
Well, ya gotta have a catch can, and he says "Tell you what. You get me a catch can, and the rear cradle is yours."
things are not what they appear to be.....

Did some prep for a track rental on Monday. Took a look at the odometer and it appears I may put 250 miles on it this year.
Wow, thought I was low with a few thou a year! But did take it out for a couple fall outings this past week. Only thing is that the 'TPMS system fault' is now popping up on the highway. The sensors/batteries are original so its time to replace them ($50 a piece installed). Kicked this around on the other board.
Correction. 76,000. I need to look closer next time

My fiancée brought the G8 a friend.
She replaced her 06 Nissan that I was able to keep going for a few years. It is going to make someone a fantastic winter beater!
Her first new car as well [and she deserves everything she has with everything she has dealt with, including me ]
The deal was good
