Your car looks awesome! Now, lowering that beast should be your next step. Congrats! BTW, where did you find a good price on those GY G2 tires?

Are those the real Z/28 wheels or repros?

OP, my little brain cannot understand how you got the car up on your custom made stands?

Probably the same way you would put stands under a car. Jack it up and slide them under.

Those stands are awesome! Also this coming from a person who has had a close friend killed from a SUV falling off of jack stands... I'd feel much safer under a vehicle on those stands!

Never liked green, but with those rims I'd take it!

I've never had stands so I wouldn't have ever thought of this.

I was able to get a small start after work, PB Blaster is the s**t, the two down stream O2's came right out, I just unpluged the up steam O2's I will take them out when I pull the manifolds, I did spray them with the PB Blaster though..

The cat back is disconnected, it's just hanging by the last two hangers at the rear of the car..

I am concerned that I might have to pull my rear fascia because of my Havoc diffuser, it goes under further then the stock one, I will look at it more tomorrow...

Keep in mind I haven't done a exhaust upgrade in 25 years, and that was on my 70 Monte Carlo, that car was a lot of fun, a boat but fun, and fast...

I have to say the Camaro is pretty easy to work on, just like the old days for the most part, and the Borla Kit? Man I wish it would have been that easy back in the day..

Anyway I will update more tomorrow with pics...

Thanks for the kind comments...
