    This thread is dedicated to all the wrenching everyone has done to their cars. Under the hood that is. Post whatever pics you may have of your car from however far back you can go. Or if you want, go all the way back to pix of when you first got your Grand Prix. So, post pics of your car then & now here. I'll start with pix of my own. I'm also curious to see the transformations from stock in some peoples cars.


    This is as far back as I could go as I like to delete old photos periodically . It's the new motor cuortesy of a guy named Ryan from a local place called FTW Motorsports.



    Here's the new motor in the car. You'll notice the fuel logs have been switched for stock fuel rails. The logs were leaking.



    Here it is with some painted accents & reinstalled fuel logs. Look close & you'll see the tranny is now black. It had to be overhauled.



    This is how it looks atm (still unfinished intercooler)


    Future plans are to finish that intercooler. If I ever get I ever get the time to I'd also like to hide that fuse box in the trunk along with the battery. Go for a real clean look.
