Those are going to look really nice on your car! Are those regular chrome, or black chrome?

you have good eyes young grasshopper, lol!!
what happen was the pacesetter rear header melted the boot on the msd wire and i have to use a universial 90* plug wire. the car was misfire like crap. i'll probably get a set of prj wires when i have fund.

as far as regular coolant goes, both the ic and radiator all been changed to the green stuff already.

probably will get rid of that ugly @ss coolant resovior tank and pick up a wizaired air box to clean up the engine bay little bit.

oh so you going to copy my idea and get it first before me if i tell you? LOL
here is what i'm looking at haven't decide if i want chrome or plastic color one yet. i think i might go with the plastic one...and i'm not going to tell you my secret how it's going to look lol when i get it.

i used the prestone 50/50 mix. it's the blue plastic container. it will say "mix with any color coolant" or something like that.
just drain your old coolant and put the new coolant in.
