So when we put the car on the dyno Friday night, we found that our oil pressure was erratic. We are wicking oil at idle with 5 psi-40psi fluctuation. I found a problem with the way the oil lines were routed, so I corrected that today, but it did not solve the problem. Most likely, we have a bad o-ring at the oil pickup tube. I will be pulling the motor out on Wednesday, then we will find out for sure. Stay tuned for pics Wednesday!

So I've finally fixed the oiling problem, and also ordered a new Camaro front drive kit. The kit will be here Monday, so I will install that and also setup my AC. Then back to the dyno!

Thank you! The only reason I got it is because it clears my intake, but I REALLY like it now that I've seen it in person

Car looks awesome. I'm a big fan of the red/black and the whole car looks tastefully modded.

So I had a little experience at Cars & Coffee Corona/Saleen this morning ... What would you do if a cop asked you to rev your engine on your way out?
