To unveil my plans for the next few weeks:

*TOG headers. Bought them used and rusty and had them refinished with silver ceramic 2000-degree coating. (pics)
*TOG flex downpipe and hallowed-out cat. Got a few layers of 1600* black paint on those. (pic)
*Novi-1000 supercharger has been sent to Texas for Todd at superchargerrebuilds.com to replace the seals I couldn't get to and check the bearings out.
*Smaller 3.4" pulley. Originally had a 4.0" and 3.6".
*Charge pipe coateded in 1600* paint and a few layers of rust-proof silver enamel to look nice. (pic)
*ZZP Shift kit, to help the non-hard tranny parts last longer.
*Change transmission fluid to new Dexron-VI.
*General tune-up and maintenance.
*New FWI rig. Still figuring that out, but I should have a nice 3" or 4" shiney tube going from the novi1000 into the fenderwell.
*Rubberized underbody coating.
*HD front and rear sway bar, and trailing arms that I've had sitting around for almost a year.
*Interior switch panel to adjust shift points, ignition timing, radiator fans, auxilary fan, and ?.
*A few other little things.

TOG flexpipe w/1600* paint, baked in my parent's oven for 2 hours before last layer (hope they don't read this post).


Empty cat with same 1600 coating but I had to cure it with a 1300 degree heat gun instead of the oven since it wouldn't fit.


Charge pipe going from novi1000 outlet into throttlebody. Had 3 coats of black 1600-degree, also oven baked, and quite a few coats of the silver enamel coating. Sure ain't chrome, but will hold up 100x better.
