Anything ever happen with this? Seemed to taper off on my searching.

So where are these couple of updates Dan??? You can't drop something like that in my thread and not let me know what is up.

In fact I was just talking about you last week with my buddy my_bd wondering what was going on, so..........

Still going, but it's going to take some time. Buying parts here and there, let alone getting some help to put the bullet in.

Still waiting on the details but from the pictures it looks pretty clear that the last shop didn't do anything except maybe hold your car hostage. I hope they at least gave you a road map of where all of those parts go....

I'm honestly not going to get into the details in regards to what's happened in the last 3 years. Point is, I have the car and a lot of parts now to help complete the build. The last 3 years have been hard...but I only smile when I look to the future. I've always felt this way ever since the nitrous incident. Everything and everyone involved are in good terms

Since I have a good amount of parts, just need some help putting it together. I don't know of any shops around the East Bay area, let alone any Cobalts. I've got some spare time now and will start putting some things in. Still need to choose a turbo...looking at either the gt40 or 4202r.

I know I've said that to myself many of times. Rod would be in the same boat here also . Money and time is tight at times. I know one day I'll be able to fire it up............one day.

As for transmissions, I have two 4T45s and one 4T65. All have been race prepped and cost a pretty penny. Worst part of the whole thing is I have one bullet and God help me if something goes wrong with that.

Where did you have the 4t45s built at?
And 4t65? does it have 3 gears like the GM racing one does?
