thought I give a little update. I havent done as much as I would have like too. Work and family seems to consume most of my time these days. Things are starting to get back to normal. I was forced to get rid of the Iroc, the Formula is in storage along with some of my parts and tools. On an up side I have been acquiring parts needed and even managed to put some of them together. Hopefully in the next 2-3 weeks I have the Formula in the garage and getting the old motor out and the new motor in.

Hope all is well bro, family bs is just that, bs, don't let it drag you down.

Sorry to hear about the White Unicorn, I remember her well

iTrader: (2)

I still have most of the parts. The rearend, rear control arms, and panhard bar are the only things that was on the car.


Think I'll have to get another Camaro, I need a 4 wheel daily driver anyway

Iroc back when it was still on the road

Here's some lost treasure shots from a late 2004 parking lot GTG.

I believe that's Terrell next to my silver bullet.

Ah, the good 'ol days of late night cruising.

whos red car is that?

Bullydawg

iTrader: (7)

I did. I have been waiting for a set to come up... I already know how I am going to have them painted and such...

Lets see some current pictures of the Formy... I have heard much about both of them, but never got to see either one. What was your deciding factor of sticking with the formula? I know you have a poll setup for them.

Did the Iroc go to someone you know closely or family?

UnderCover89TBI

iTrader: (25)

It isn't yours??

OUTATIME GTA

iTrader: (2)

He's being facetious. It's Travis' old RS, pre-crash.

I'm guessing because the Formula actually moved in the past 5 years!

Not sure why I'm parked backwards. Whatta dork. Still sportin' the factory gold crosslaces ftw!

UnderCover89TBI

iTrader: (25)

I know I was like 99% sure it was traviz car

kairles

iTrader: (2)

thats actually Travis' Iroc.

Didnt really "pick" that Formula, it just happen to have wheels and a front suspension so it was really easy to move. No new pics, been garaged for the last 3 years.

kairles

iTrader: (2)

Brought the Formula home today, gonna start working on it tomorrow.

you can see the short block bagged up in the corner

TraviZ

iTrader: (2)

iroc duh, see the hood and stripes.

Bullydawg

iTrader: (7)

Are those 2006 tags?

UnderCover89TBI

iTrader: (25)

only the most observant posters here on thirdgen. But 2012 tags are the same color so its possible it could be '12 tags

kairles

iTrader: (2)

2007 tags. I got the car in early 07, killed it in early 08. Been in a garage since.

Think im gonna buy a nice big fan tomorrow

Copchaser

iTrader: (2)

For those of us who weren't around when this thing was running, can we get a brief background on the car please? How, when did u acquire it, events leading up to the long "nap"... What ur new plan is... I'd like to follow your story a little better.

On a side note, what are u gonna do with the block that's coming out?

UnderCover89TBI

iTrader: (25)

im all for that information

It took as long as it has because I started buying things for my bike. Formula was garaged across town, out of sight out of mind.

oh and the new plan.
I have
forged piston/rods/crank
paitriot performance vortec heads
comp xfi268 cam
edelbrock single plane EFI manifold + elbow
LSx 90mm TB
749 ECM + 2 bar MAP

Looks like the P600B is gonna be to small so I've been looking into turbo's


not sure what Im gonna do with the old LB9

Are you really ditching the P600B now, or you mean later? (what size pulleys did you have?) Curious on why it's too small with that setup (i.e. goals with this?)

Still going to do the '749 if you go turbo? Might want to go 3-bar if you have lofty boost goals, no?

I'd be down to help a weekend morning with the tear down.

kairles

iTrader: (2)

Not ditching it yet, but from doing the math I may only get 10 psi max. Still going with the 749, 2 bar should be good up to 29 psi right? Think I have a 3.5 and 3.25 pulley but I'd have to look and see.

OUTATIME GTA

iTrader: (2)

Too bad your pulleys aren't the same as mine I don't think. I'll want to upgrade to a 3.4 eventually. I'd love to be at 10psi on my stock block!

I was under the impression that a 2 bar reads 1 bar vacuum and 1 bar boost=14.7 PSI. If you wanted over that, a 3 bar is necessary, no?

If you were looking at MSD units that say 29psi, that's just a range, but I think they advertise up to 20 pounds of boost, not sure how that works or if model specific.
