I finally got her to the point that I want to show her off. This is the result of two days of detailing and mechanical work. Thanks to my nephews and niece, for all their help.
Thanks, of course Pure Evil stands for my trans issues right now. Instead of the performance and looks.
Very nice but why only a 3.4" pulley. With your supporting mods you should be running a 3.1" at least.
I was told by Intense that with my stock injectors that the 3.4 should be all i run. Maybe i should have it scanned and see what the duty cycle is on the injectors.

First, nice. Love the grand prix gxp rims (they were always my favorite and they look good on a bonnie) and second, I have to ask out of curiosity why the air filter element on the oil filler cap? Maybe this is well known but I have not seen this and was wondering why?

Wellintr, with the Incercooler, normally you have to block the PCV, so the pressure in the crankcase has to go somewhere, and that filter gives it a place to go.

Forgot to put this in my last post, but it looks great!! I can't wait to see it in person sometime.

That is a great car. One I would take note of right away. Particularly the motor bay: I know your Bonny is a lot newer except I don't think I could ever get my bay clean and detailed enough to show her off. Great post, glad I went looking.
2001 Bonneville SSEi. 1598xx mi. great car. Wrecked
Burnt Bonny.
Note if you pull the injectors to obserbe fuel delivery...make sure you leave the plugs in and disconnect the ign. Believe me
Most of what you see is years of dreaming, planning and saving. Thanks to you guys I have taken this car to the level you see here. Now i have to think of the next level.
I had to make new mounts, and cut a little around the bolt holes in the bumper. I also put in a HID kit and made them a sealed unit. Then i added a relay so went you put on the hi-beams the fog lights stay on. I Still have not got them working very well, mostly i have to fine tune them. The ones on my 98 are alot better, but the looks are not a nice. Here is the link to the lights i used on my 98. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/CLEAR-PR ... 5192dd0ac5

I used a kit like that bottom one (exact one IIRC) on my '93. Light output was marginal at best, nothing close to my Optilux Angel Eye setup. but far easier to aim correctly and run all the time. Actually bought a couple PVC reducers and modified them to fit and create bigger "housings" for them. Some dremel work, painted them black, and was good to go.
