    I received my new shift boot (but car hasn't arrived so can't install it yet!).

    This. The 96 wing may not be a huge difference, but the difference is definitely there. When I first put mine on way back on 04 I was at a meet and I had several people do double takes because of my spoiler, and a whole conversation was started over it several times over.

    While waiting on the machine shop to finish cleaning my block and checking out the crank, I have my heads torn down and cleaned and will be reinstalling the valve train this weekend. When I first disassembled everything I had all the valves marked so I knew what valve went to what guide. I decided to throw all the valves in the bucket of chem dip (after a long day) to clean then and so they are no longer organized. Will I be ok just lapping the valves, or will I need to send them to the machine shop since the valves will no longer match with the original guides and seats?

    Ugh..working on heads last night. Realized that the machine shop that cleaned them removed a few plugs and never reinstalled them.

    It was yesterday but I finally installed the solid shifter bushings, both the base and cable ends. only problem is that 1st gear is not stiff. its smooth, no notchiness or "walls" just kind of...gummy. I think the cable end bushing might be binding slightly when going into first as it will have the most angle from the cable mounting bracket on the trans.

    Check the valve guide play and lap the valves to the seats.

    Haha so that's how you fixed it

    What goes with that? A Red or White wine? Or is it Bells?

    Sorry. 99 just makes more horizontal lines on the back of a stealth. And the angles just don't flow with the curvy lines of the stealth either. I don't even like wingless....but a wingless stealth > stealth with 99 wing.
