I don't have any pics currently, but will soon. My two cents is handle suspension first, engine second, then go on to the paint. That way by the time you get the engine finished She's already drivin' like a dream.

I'm still at the suspension right now. I HIGHLY recomend a strut brace bar. I just put one in and WOW. Between 36mm front and 24mm rear sway bars and a BMR 3 pt strut brace bar i have pretty much no body flex and minimal body roll. next is front eibach springs and KYB struts all around.

Idea , century 2 parking lot the last day of starbird , if you've never been it's awesome .
Non-stop hotrods and 95% are pissed they didn't get a trophy , it's a burnout festival , when was the last time you saw a cuda light'em up or a chevelle with a blower going sideways ?
Think it over , if people decide to go maybe someone should send a pm to everyone in this thread .

I was thinking about going, I think it's $3.00 per car and 8-4 on fri and sat. If I go I think I will take the truck opposed to the camaro, just in case I find something I can't live without.

Cheers!!

Yep. Hitting the road for Wichita early Friday morning--last year IROC wheels for $125 and a L/S Conteur seat for $25 (and a gut full of those roasted peanuts).

ill be there to trying to pawn off my boyd shysters so if anyone is interested let me know. 800.00

gojayhawk1

anyone have an extra dashpad in wichita? Mine cracked the other day because Kansas likes to have 50 degree swings in a single day. That's what I'm guessing is the cause anyway.

TiredRS

It looks like I am over a year too late for this get together. Are there any third gen-rs around here that meet up on the weekends. I have no one to compare rides with or talk shop with... In person I mean. This forum is super helpful though.

I see them all the time driving the streets and on this board so I know they are around. Maybe it's a good time to have another get together. Just give me a month or more before doing so as my transmission has decided that my car would rather sit in one spot than go.

rockchalk

I'm thinking we should do another meet! I just joined not long ago and would love to meet some third geners around the area.

cspear1

Just got my 85 Z28 a few weeks back. First post on this site. Would be kinda cool to see what everyone elses ride looks like.

CjandAlex

Hey I'm South of Wichita. I have a 91 RS 3.1 and I'm about done ****ing with it. Dropin a 350 in it =)

rockchalk

We definately need to have a meet/cruise around the wichita area before it gets cold out. If anyone is interested post here and we can try to set it up.

WileECoyoteSr

Just got my 91 Z-28 5.7L L98 a month ago and the seller warned me it had failed to start for him twice. His luck was that it miraculously healed itself both times. I'm not so lucky. I've diagnosed it to the injectors not firing and have hit the limits of my IQ even with a Chiltons in hand and going through all the diagnostics I can find on this site. And there are a lot. Anyone know a good reliable mechanic that speaks L98 TPI's? If so, drop me a direct email to twanderson1@***.net. And thanks.

WileECoyoteSr

No one knows a mechanic that is trustworthy and conversant in L98 TPI's?

CjandAlex

Will Smith in Goddard I just got my car back from him. He can do anything

WileECoyoteSr

Can you give me the address and phone for Mr. Will Smith in Goddard, Kansas? I assume he's not the actor moonlighting. I may need to have my 91 towed to him if it strands me. See my thread on
Another WON'T START story. Help!
Thanks.

Hes worked on my car twice he had a bitch of a time finding out what was wrong with it but hes really good

WileECoyoteSr

Thanks. I really appreciate it. The other thread is theorizing an intermittent fuel pump relay. I'll keep throwing the easy to get at parts at the car hoping to find the cure. But I'm sure as heck going to keep his contact information handy. Thanks again.

CjandAlex

Just a warning...I'm not sure how much other shops charge because I've always taken my car to him, get ready to shell out some money.
