hotrod16105

I'll ask around. You can pm me with info and what not.

Orr89RocZ

i may make a classified add. I'll give you some info, it aint much. SHould get rebuilt but will run when put back together enough to carry a thirdgen in the 12's with stock heads/cam on a good day

Stippy17

I might actually be interested if you dont want to much for it. I'm looking to swap out my ugly little 2.8L for something bigger lol. What are the specs on it?

I kinda skimmed through all the pages...any from the Monroeville area?

Just got an '85 T/A like 2 weeks ago and I wanna see some of the locals once this weather breaks.

Soccerman133

85


lets raceeee..

I'm only like 30 min from your area i think

deadman

im close new stanton.

Zaffol

Oh yeah? What area are you in?

Also, what all do you have done to your car?

Mine is bone stock, with the exception of a head unit.

Soccerman133

85 Trans am too.. headers and exhaust. thats all

LMSkyliner

we should all head up the strip in the spring. Ill be running the 85 Roc headers/exhaust/airfoil

Orr89RocZ

DEFINATELY strip session! haha that didnt sound right...

but yeah, lets go racing

Stippy17

Haha, I'll be prepared to be the slowest with my 5 Speed 2.8..

You wait for my engine swap, I plan on swapping in a 383 before the end of summer if all goes to plan.

I'm not sure about the strip session, but I'll race. Although I'm sure you'll be faster than the rest of us.

Orr89RocZ

who knows... on paper it looks good but we'll see. its gonna come down to my assembly skills and my tuning ability

swap in my L98 for the summer. 13's all day long

ruberbanman126

hey my dad just told me there is a camaro/corvette swap meet on sunday from 8-3 at tom henry chevrolet, just wanted to let everyone know.

LMSkyliner

^ thats some great info right there because i need some parts still. I should be there looking for driver fenders and interior bits


So what kind of ETs are we all looking at? we may have some close races. I think i read Orr is running a new L98? That should be a good match for my full exhaust airfoil and maybe cammed L98.


ps. what gears are u running Orr? I got some 3.42s . Theyll be 373 or 4.11s eventually but the 3.42s should be good to take most ppl.

Orr89RocZ

lol i'm gonna be running a 383 "L98" i guess you can call it. Looking to run in the 11's on motor. If i dont i'll be VERY disappointed. But i'm confident it will be a pretty quick car. My old L98 tho was pretty quick for the mods...ran low 13's all day long and 12.9's on a good day

I currently have 3.42's and will run those for awhile. I know i will need more like 4.10's to get the most out of this motor but i wont do that swap till i get a 12 bolt or 9 inch rear. I will look into 3.73's tho for the 10 bolt if i can get them cheap lol I dont feel this thing lasting long with 3600-3800 stall and 500+ hp launches

LMSkyliner

aw... Id need my finished L98 for that one. Im also building a 383 L98 but i dont have the funds to do it this spring after paint

Eagle223usa

Drag strip? IROC's are road racers, We should all do a track day at Beaver Run in the spring! That would be cool!

LMSkyliner

this works just as well for me since im making my car a drag AND road race car

Orr89RocZ

me too, i got a decent handling suspension and just really need bigger brakes and wheels/tires to get the full potential out of it. Got the canton road race oil pan, and would like to upgrade to the 1LE style gas tank with baffles so i dont suffer starvation like i currently do when i'm down 1/4 tank or so

grimmcs

Once I get my turbo v6 done, Id be willing to go down the strip or around the track. I just need to get it in the car and tuned.
