Anyway, any horn thoughts would be great.

Nope, none yet. My friends dad had an old 80's caddy when I was a kid, the horn was AWESOME.

5.13 to 5.38 gears

I swapped out the 5.13 for 5.38 gears. There was a very noticeable improvement in performance.

However, I have not used a tank of gasoline yet so stay tuned for the gas mileage report..

I also added Teraflex diff covers and my very own AEV Procal module.

On a curiosity note, what were the gas mileage figures when you had the 5.13s?

Benchmark Designs Evap skid testing

Went to Rausch Creek today, and tested the skid...

I think I bent it a little...

Atleast the canister is good.

Finally straightened my steering wheel which was off after adjusting my front track bar last week. Also finally got my TX plates. And then...

Top down, doors off! Actually first time with doors off since I purchased her in Feb...yesterday was 77 degrees and sunny here in Dallas. It was a beautiful drive.
