I'm after it. No fear, no more LS1 swaps .

Might actually put those LE wheels on it .

We'll see if I can get down there to pick it up. Launched my pet food earlier this year and it's crumming my **** up for time.

I know dude. I saw your car out this weekend, had a bunch of people over though so I left ya alone. I'll have to come actually see that thing soon. I wish I could get this car back, maybe if I win a lottery soon....

That would be awesome man! I forgot to PM you back about those wheels, sorry about that. I would totally trust you with the car and wouldn't have to worry about it anymore. Lemme know how it goes!

Just gotta get down there to get it. Tying up some time, but it looks like the bees knees.

LE wheels and away I go.

PM me your phone number and we'll give you a call and ask about some of the finer details.

If you're talking about the 2 bolt flange (he has it in the vice in the pic) that's part of the stock FC oil drain plumbing. The S4 and S5 are both usable since you'll be cutting it up and modding it anyway

Yep, that is exactly it.

Just a FC turbo oil drain with a welded in steel bung to adapt it to the pipe I threaded into the GSL-SE front cover.
