Now this is something we all need to say a little prayer for this morning. I know I will, God Bless TMS.

I always wanted to start a thread that made a difference! I am glad this worked out. So sorry for your loss Nate, and I hope that the outpouring of support from this thread helps to make you feel like there is still some good out there even when life shows such an ugly unfair side. God bless bro. 05gt you rock man! 05gt stepped up with the administrative duties and got this done, while I pm'd everybody and their sister to get the word out. This was a little silver lining on a very dark cloud.

ok guys, got my jlt and tune installed today!!!! wow. this thing really hauls now, and i only have the 87 tune in.

heres some pics, and a special thanks to all of you who helped out. you guys are the best.








my only problem now is plumbing the shaker into the heat shield. i will probably just get some hose and extend the shaker tube straight into the shield. easy and fast.

If you got enough donations together you might be able to arrange a weekend getaway somewhere. Sometimes getting away is the best solution.

i noticed when most people adapt a heat shield to the shaker they use some other type of plumbing, i found the stock shaker assembly works great if you trim the shield correctly and just extend the coupler about 2-3 inches.....

cost me less than 10 and i used the dremel for the modifications.... but i also lost one of my throttle body bolts installing it....

i dropped it and heard it fall into the car somewhere... but after searching for 40 minutes i just gave up... i need to get another one. dont worry, its in there snug and its not going anywhere.

other than that it went without a hitch!!!

thanks again guys!
