Thanks, I'm trying to use good quality performance parts to improve the car!.

The diff cover is a Moser from classic industries.

I have a few parts for the engine, but that's on hold until I've done all the mods etc and a new paint job!.

Thanks from Luke

My latest improvement to my car, is a Aluminium Dash panel from Custom Works Camaro and all new Autometer gauges. Including a GPS speedo!

That aluminium dash looks really good! How are you finding the GPS speedo in regards to reliability?

How to post pics: When writing a message, scroll down and use the "attach file" option. Where possible, a photo sharing service can be used such as Flickr, Imgur etc. The image location (usually ending in .jpg) can be copy and pasted between the ][ brackets that appear when you click the 'Img' button (you can find this button at the top of the message box).

How to post youtube vids: Click on the 'youtubeHD' button at the top of the message box and in the middle of the ][ brackets that just appeared, copy and paste everything from the youtube web address that appears after the = sign i.e if this is the url: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2cNqaPSHv0 just copy "K2cNqaPSHv0").

So far I'm really happy with it.!

It finds a GPS signal within 30 seconds, when you go under a bridge it drops of for a split second and connects straight back up. I have only noticed it drop off once for about half a mile, I assumed that it was a black spot !. It's only a few miles from my house, so I will have to drive there again to confirm if it's a black spot or was a glitch!

I've been spying that dash panel at Custom Works for a while... Nice to see one fitted and being used.. :chevy:
