Whats Up

Whats going on? I just wanted to introduce myself to everyone (im posting this here because this seems to be the most active board). The name is because I have a '86 z28 project car, but I also have a '88 5.0 GT 5-speed as a daily driver. I will post some pics in a sec.

My bad, sorry about the pics.
My Camaro is a '86 z28, origonaly a LG4, now with a 357 with about 350hp if it were running. I also put a TH-350 in it. I did the motor swap and got everything right, then went to crank her up and she didnt. Its like the timing is way off, but I have checked it over and over. I think im about to take the acc.'s off and and remove the timing chain and gear cover. Im thinking I was maybe drunk or something when I put it together and didnt line the dots up on the crank and cam. Maybe thats all thats wrong with it.

Oh and BTW: Its non ecm with a Performer 750 carb

man i dont want to be meen but i can not stand the boxy *** looks of those stangs they dont look sporty at all to me. thats just my opinion though so dont flame me too much. i think the 82-92 camaros are so much more sleeker looking then the stangs any day. "CAMARO ALL THE WAY":lala:

No flaming needed. I agree %110! I plan on getting a Cobra rear bumper cover, saleen spoiler, and LX tail lights. That should fix the boxy look. Also, if I would lower the damn 4x4, and get some diff rims it would not look so boxy/bulky.

Welcome to the boards, but this is for Detailing and Appearance of third generation f-bodies so I'm locking this. If you wanna post pics of your Camaro, we'd love to see them
