Well was going to rest this morning but I had to re-arrange the garage. I adopted a metal band saw and a standing drill press. Still need a small welder for Aluminum. Cutting this hood may speed that purchase up, I want to use all metal if i can.

This afternoon I met a couple of awesome people, Mike and Joel. Mike needed Springs installed. So we hooked him up. If anyone out there is selling you springs with Infinity Struts on them, Don't pay more for the strut. Those struts will NOT work on a Z, the studs are to short and wont clear the Strut Ring making it impossible to get a nut started. If the seller says they will fit remember a car guy that does this work daily is telling you they wont fit! We got Mike's springs swapped on to the Z struts, the springs slammed his ride.

Joel came by for paint, I do need to apologize to him. We didn't get to his lights and like typical Florida weather it started raining like crazy. I never got to do his lights. That doesn't happen often and if you see this post I am sorry.

So, back out to work on hood. Adjusting the cut lines to ensure I have the clearance for the 1 inch drop into the engine bay.
