Hi Kai, greetings from Duesseldorf!

Yep, work has started we have installed the TLG led kits as well as started the tear down of the top end of the engine to install the new lifters, rockers and the new intake so it should be done soon. I am waiting for the car on the lift to be finished so we can to the rest. that will happen after the 8th. we are almost done with the goodie that will be going on the car
I will be posting pictures of the build this next week we have been going full tilt here to get things done and I have not had much time to post like I need to but I will get them up asap.

Modifications: www.yellowfiero.com/mods/index.php

Are we going to see this at Daytona in March?

I guess. I was actually going to ask Dean if he could finish my car by Feb. 15 because I have to go to Orlando anyways. Then I'd drive up to Daytona from Miami. Otherwise I may come to Daytona straight from his shop...

I will do my best to get it done soon, call me today when you can.

Progress!

New lifters and 1.6 roller rockers installed:



TLG dual intake going in:

The Hella lighting onslaught is beginning at Whodeanie Customs:





The red/amber ribbed taillight inserts and the silver plastic enclosures around the Hella lights will be painted black.

And the reverse lights will receive TLG's HID kit.

THIS!!

This is what it is SUPPOSED to look like!
I am having extreme feelings of jealousy!

(Once all the taillight work is done, I sure would appreciate modification details, "how to".... )

It's all looking magnificent Kolja

Now painted black. Doesn't this look completely and utterly awesome?

Looking good sir.

Ok, many people have asked how to do the tail lights. it is not that hard to do it just takes time a hole saw and a little luck.
first take the tail light apart and remove the red and amber section, measure it out for the lights, get a hole saw that is the right size or a hair under and drill the hole. this is the kicker! you have to use a very fine hole saw bit or run it backwards other wise it will brake the cover. once that is done clean up the hole and sand to fit. after that paint the lens black with krylon fussion semi gloss black let dry and install lights.
they will have to be glued in because no other way to mount them. I used hot glue to hold them in place then sealed them with black RTV.
you will have to trim patr of the back cover to clear the lights to reinstall it as well, and done

here are some other pics of them.





now on to other things.

we installed the coliover front on the car as well as the rest of the TLG intake.
here are some shots of that as well.





















we also installed new lifters and roller rockers.

way more to come.....

HID back up lights, HID head lights, Angle eye running lights, LED cab, brake and marker lights. as well as a few other goodies we will shaer later

I think I'm in love! :-)

Very nice. I am very interested in how this intake performs.

I've had the idea for years and I saw it first put into practice by Infinitewill.

That's quite ingenious, I really like it.

Is this that same 2.8 that had that ticking noise? Did you ever find out what it was?

tailight mod sooooooooooo simple...wonder why it took so long! LOOKS AWESOME ! How much are the Hella units?

Bad lifter... replaced them all and threw 1.6 roller rockers in for good measure.

the lights look great and last night we bench tested them
if these are not seen someone needs help, unless they say they were blinded!

the running lights.....



the brake lights....
they are so bright that they only use 1/2 of them



the turn signals......



and the angle eyes....

Yellowstone, you beat me to it! These taillights look amazing. I am in the process of doing the exact same mod. Mine are using a slightly different set of Hellas, smoked, and I am eliminating the stock reverse lights as the new ones incorporate them.

Not a bad idea but I'm getting the HID backup lights from TLG. Looking forward to see your install.

OK....I guess I'm ditching the 82' Corvette LED reproduction taillights I have to do this mod and ordering the Hella lights as soon as I have the money!
This just looks WAY TOO COOL.

The turn signals are yellow, right?

I know you have been working toward this for a VERY long time Kolja. I even remember seeing some stock taillight insert parts you had been tinkering with that were on the workbench in your shop in Dusseldorf. At the time, I didn't quite get what you were doing, but as we both know now, THIS is the way the taillights SHOULD look!

The suspension, the brakes, the intake manifold, all that looks great too, but the taillights REALLY "grab me by the boo-boo" and give me a thrill

The Hella LED turn signals are white when off and yellow when flashing.

I was toying with this idea for a long time and what you saw on my workbench years ago were taillights from a VW Golf IV that I was trying to modify. The Hella route is much better (and much more expensive), though.

Are you coming to Daytona?
