I hope we all get banned. HAHAHHAH
I told Chuck *SHOW US ON THE HEADERS WHERE HE TOUCHED YOU*
I LOL'd when I saw it.

Honestly, fuck that forum. Internet Brands needs to die a slow painful death (offline). They have some of the worst mods in existence and that forum is ready to ban anyone, even if they are 100% correct and polite.

Expect a strike by the end of the day. Extra credit if you tell the Mod to fuck himself and screen shot it.

LOL will do.
I've already got one strike from countering the resident cock-goblin "Evil-Twin" over how Borla exhausts don't have drone which was backed by David Borla. Mr holier than thou tried to pull his engineer card and got called out repeatedly.
I could care less if I don't have access to post on that forum. I can still search it for occasional info that I need.

I feel bad for the Evil-twin guy if he's still alive. He's kind of a jackass but he means well and did some cool stuff before he got old and closed his mind. He was also posting under the influence of who knows how many different medications for years.

I used to feel bad for him, until he countered a couple of my posts with closed minded logic. Basically the "I'm pulling the engineer card, which means I'm right, because I'm the engineer". I work for engineers, so I know it well. Take other people's knowledge into consideration and hear them out before completely shooting them down. That's why he lost all of my respect.

I saw that. Not sure the wheels fit the C6, but I still think a more modest Regamaster would look great. My truck has eaten almost all of my C5 mod money though.

Should've done this and sold the rear for $250. I had given up on CF, everyone wanted like $300+ for one C5Z front. I ended up losing patience and buying one from House of Wheels for $250 shipped, total set cost me $470 shipped in the end. I'm excited to finally trash these PSS though, they're garbage at this point.

Lolol. I don't think Chucky boy follows it.
Man I need some racing. It's been nearly 2 months. The Meowta is running with no leaks (still burns oil tho), and I need the wife to run this bitch.
My C5 is feeling lonely

Mine isn't feeling the love either.

I'm getting close to having the BMW finished doe, I'm really all hands on deck for that.
Might skip the January race, on the fence. Not setting up on Saturday is swaying me to go to the event, that way my entire weekend isn't booked up.

Hopefully they can get the fuck away from that Saturday shit. Bruce always had a hard-on for it. If you stop following all these elements to the T and just worry about sections relative to each other you can save so much time.
Kudos on the Beemer. I don't think people are going to realize that you've knocked that entire car out in record time and how far you've gone into the weeds with everything. I'm about ready to tear into this engine that Carl gave me. I looked at my spare engine's crank and it's not to spec and it doesn't look like it's to spec of any stage of regrind, so I need to tear it apart and get the existing crank looked at. That's next on my list for car shit, because this oil burning weak ass motor has to go..

If I know that no one's going to enter Cam, then I might join Kendra in ES to help her learn the car.

I'll be done with the interior (shy of the sunroof) after this weekend, and after that, it's just the rear end left.

Question for the smart guys... Any ideas on what blew out on the front of my motor... Oil spewed out, got on the VC covers, etc. I need to investigate further, it's stuck in the work parking lot, but curious if anyone has ideas.Image

Can't really tell, but you talking about little oil splots on those hoses?
Mine is greasy between the valve cover and the block behind the pulley, and I think it's leaking from the PCV valve. When I looked at :melon:'s LS1 I noticed that my PCV valve is in a different spot on the LS6, so I think that's where I'm getting my issues. I think the LS1 PCV runs down the intake manifold and connects somewhere near the middle of the valve cover or something.

PCV on my 03 is on a hose that runs along the passenger side valve cover next to the intake manifold. I'd suspect that blew somehow, which would be weird. It's hidden under the coil cover, so you wouldn't be able to see it immediately.

You can see where mine is. It's the black hose that loops on the bottom of the left head. When I clean up my engine it always seems to start back up with the dirty shit right there. I'd replace it, but it's a fucking $100 oem part. I'm cheap, so I leave it until it breaks.

Weird. Mine is on top of the head. Where's your valve? below the headers?
