That's cool. I think today was just a rotten day in general for me. I am planning on applying for a job at a different firm I am sick of having to work with one individual in particular that is nothing more than a whiny, childish, SOB that thinks he knows everything. What make it worse is the one person that needs to put him in his place or fire his *** won't say a word.

As far as the parts go I think all I really need now is a grille. I went ahead and order the oil cooler lines from GMPD. They were $95 including shipping.

ebay grille
Here is a cheap oem grille on ebay that I am considering. Let me know what you think about it. I asked if the part around the mesh was painted or just black plastic and the response I got back said:
"We have painted smooth black or the dark grey textured. Please let us know which one you want when you checkout."
It's awful cheap tho and I don't want to end up with a POS.

Ya I saw that too. That's why I asked them if it was infact "painted". I think it is the cheapest one I have seen and their feedback looks good.

I hope they work too! As long as they hook up to the block properly for the oil feed I can make them work one way or another..
No idea when I will get the lines yet. I haven't recieved the standard email from GMPD saying that they have even been shipped yet.

The new grille is currently scheduled for delivery on Saturday with Fedex!

The cooler lines have still not shipped.
