A little further along today, heads installed and torqued. I have the intake and valve covers just sitting on it to keep the dust out.

Did a little stereo work on mine today. Put in a small 2 channel amp under the seat to power the 6x9s in the rear deck. Wasn't anything crazy but a true 60x2 watts helped add a little more volume.

Got bored and decided to put the new rear Bilstein shocks on the Chevelle. It is such a beautiful day to work in the garage!

I worked on Joans Sport Trac right beside the Chevelle today but did nothing to the Chevelle or El Camino.

Dropped my Astro Van off at Eric's house today. He said he could drive it to work and work on it, then drive it home. I have been hearing a noise and I think it is a wheel bearing in the front. And of course he doesn't hear it, reminds me of another time with my car. Anyway, I told him he could keep the van for a few days and drive it to see if he hears anything. The reason I dropped it off at his house is cause he lives about 12 miles from me and his shop is about 25-30 miles from my house. When I talked to him this afternoon he was shocked at how good of gas mileage the van gets. So he is happy to be using my van, my gas for a few days.

As far as my car, just looked at the snow built up in front of garage. And I noticed that David left the light on in the garage.
