Headers/exhaust should have the ceramic coating done next week. Pulley and cam should be here this week. Wheels should be done within 2 weeks. I'm just waiting for a new front mount......the current ones available are not the greatest. KDI should have one available real soon.

Caddy over s2k anyday. Even in back seat while "in mexico" against this s2k. That v is fast for a factory street car weighing almost 5000lbs. lol. The caddy will wax s2k with all the same mods. haha just wait.. 475 is prolly what it makes now lol. Wait till it dynos 600++ Cant wait for the headers soundss. Id like to hear a "lobey idle" in a $70,000 caddy.

Who cares who beat who. The caddy is badd ass. and on any given day any car can beat any car given supporting mods.

I work at Livernois Motorsports and here is the one we just finished up, the idle sound doesnt really fit the caddy but all in all it seemed to be a good package. If you ever decide to step up to a better camshaft or cylinder heads let me know I will hook you up. By the way the car in the video went 10.79 at 128.

Cool........Livernois makes some seriously nice cars. Wish I would have known you worked there before buying parts.

I dont buy 385 in that car. I talked to the guy too and he seemed cool. But i think the 385 was a slipped belt run. That car should be around 410-420 whp.

Who'd you go to for ceramic coating? I've been displeased with my Jet Hot.

Ah, they did my valve covers, header heat shields, and power steering reservoir lid.
