4 Cams...32 Valves...5 Liters...This Could Get Fun!
Just get order one from Alex at Blackcatcustoms. Mine was less than $300, cuz its just basic. Nothing fancy. I love that it looks *almost* stock.
Well its about time i change a few things on my cav. I picked up a set of LSJ injectors from Jeffie and Cody was nice enough to play delivery guy for me.
The gauges are boost and oil pressure.
This pic is mainly to show everyone that Skunk's engine bay isnt THAT dirty.
And last but not least, how my cav is going to be spending its winters from now on.
Yep, it's getting boosted. 3.0 pulley, Cobra heat exchanger, and Gm reflash to start. Then as time and money allow, blower cams, meth, exhaust, and HPT.

Looks awesome dude,
I read the whole thread and your car makes me want to bag my car,
Any updates on rims?
REALLY good job on the dash, so what is mounted in the opening beside the gauge
Awesome... fan of the car i'll be staying tuned ot the changes.
FOR SALE
I cant make up my mind on rims, but i will hopefully have a set by the time the snow melts.
Xplicit - That the Autopilot controller for my airride. It used to be here:
I hated it there, i had to take my eyes completely off the road to check my pressures, it wasnt in arms reach
, and it wasnt stable.
Aaanndd looking threw this whole thread, i realise that some of this stuff isnt going make it to the cav.

I knew it was for the air ride after i thought about it
For some reason my mind connected air ride with hydraulics and so when i seen something that small to control it all, considering the size of most hydraulic controls, i was like ok, there is no way that's what he uses it for lol
Anyways nice job on them none the less, especially being as it was your first glassing project
Also you said some stuff wont make it to the car so how about some updates, what is to come, what ideas were dropped etc, keep us entertained! And get some rims already! lol

All that stuff will come in due time. I want to make sure a few ideas turn out good first.
But i'll just say the aluminum control arms wont be on the car, i decided to use them in the GP.

BC2 front...mmm... one of the best kits for the cavs imo, with the ls front and extreme tuner..
ur car has come along way... cant wait to see it boosted with the bags lol... and that kit should look awesome on there
I went home last weekend to work on the car, but i forgot my keys. Anywho i remembered my keys this weekend when i went home, so i made some progress and ran into a few snags.
Thats how i left it today, hopefully i'll make more progress next weekend.
Then alittle modivation.

whad you do with your old rims and what size were they. they look like 16's????
Well i tinkered on it alittle more today, nothing picture worthy. I just removed the belt and alternator and re routed the IAC and TPS wiring harness. I have to order the proper bolts and wiring connectors this week. I also have one unmentioned mod on the way. I figured i might as well do it as long as i already have the intake manifold off.

Hey tinkles. Can I ask you what the compressor looks like in the trunk? And does it make a lot of noise? What's your personal take on the easystreet air ride? Just wondering i'm an interested buyer and your car looks sweet.
Do you want a pic of my trunk set-up or of just the compressor? It's just a single Viair 380c.
As for noise well, i have to leave my 1/3 seat down cuz the leader hose from the compressor(the only hot one) hits the back of the seat. It was an error on my part when i was installing it, but i have to get out of my car to talk to someone who is standing at my door. So, yea its loud, but i got used to it.
My take on the airride. Its fun as hell. No one expects a cavalier to be bagged. The handling is a tad better than stock. I drive at 35psi(front) and 40-45psi(rear) and the ride is decent. If you ride at more than 60psi it feels like you have 2x4s for struts.
Well alittle bad news, it turns out that the pulley i traded for isnt a 3.0". It's a 3.1".
Im also entertaining a few ideas that have to deal with the battery, intake tube, and cam cover.

Yeah a few pics of the trunk setup would be great mang. I've always liked the outside look of the newer cavvy models. And your sig has always caught my attention.
This is the only pic i can find of my wiring rats nest.

Cool! I never knew the tank was so big, but lifting up a whole car does take some power.
Well my cousin and i knocked out a few things today.
But 1st things 1st. I had a package from Jegs waiting for me when i got back to the apartment.
Its a Braille B2015 "no weight" battery. Perfect to cram into the space where the air filter is suppose to go.
Now on to the work. We got the idler pulley mounted and also my H/E pump. The H/E was mocked up and almost ready for installation. And for the people that have actually seen the @!#$ty home speaker wiring job that i did for my airride, i rewired it, finally.
The pump was mounted by using the stock cobaltss bracket that i got with my S/C goodies.
