Definitely a CAI. When that engine compartment warms up, KR galore. :( Otherwise, anything else in the "Rapping at my chamber door" section of my sig will hopefully be done by the end of summer, among some body work needed on the driver side front fender and hood.

lol.. Someone that does preventive maintance... IF only I could be so smart..

I think i'll get around to changing the oil... and maybe getting a new coolent fan...

Oh and the reason I dont do 'preventive maintance' because Luckly for me I have a few other vehicles to drive instead... Its redneck mentality... The more things in the driveway the better the odds somthing will run. :o

That, new rockers, rods, springs,
P&P
TOG headers
Possibly a hot(er) cam.
LSD
Shift Kit...

There are advantages to working at a Pontiac Dealership...

Oh yeah, and some tint. Definately some tint.

Well, I just got in from installing my new intake(Auto-Zone cheapy)
Tomorrow I do my oil and filter change, gotta do my SC oil, too.
Need to look for new plugs/wires.
Gotta price the headers/exhaust/caty/mufflers.
Smaller pulley.
Think my harmonic balancer may be that rattle I've been hearing for about three days now, gotta track down that noise.
Try to find the installation guide for an older Pioneer CDplayer my brother gave me when he changed the console on his Avenger and it no longer fit.
Find right-side heat-shield for back bumper.
Etc, etc, etc...

Mine is more of a wish list, based on time and money, than an actual to-do list, but, in no particular order..

I wanna convert my stock airbox into a kind-of CAI by closing off the stock intake hole (or not), and routing it to the drivers side fog light opening
Make my brakes light up all four of the tail light sections, not just the outer 2
Light-up PONTIAC on the trunk
Clean/Mod engine cover
Clean the dang engine finally
Touch up paint on the body...
