The t/a is undergoing some improvements...for those who care....
well... my black t/a is undergoing a few mods/improvements here in about a week...it starts this coming monday!
yanking out my old crappy cam which is basically a stock cam...and replacing it with a custom grind comp cam 280 duration and .485 lift on a 106 lobe sep...should sound like she's highly pissed off
while im at it,im going to swap the stock quadrajet intake,infavor of an edelbrock alum streemaster single plane high rise..and top it off with either my 650 holley double pumper...or tony's 600 holley double pumper..depending on which we can get to run best i guess..
also depending on funding..im going to try and throw a gear drive in while i got the thing ripped apart. next up is exhaust, im buying myself new headers and y pipe for xmas,havent decided on shortys i had before which chevymad now owns...or to go with full length's. and last but not least im swapping rearends.. yes ive totally foobarred mine up,its howling like crazy and is about ready to blow up...so for xmas my parents are buying me a 3.42 posi disc rear from a 94-95 z28 i cant remember which year it is,along with that there gonna get me a new tq convertor..130 bucks gets me a jegs brand 2200-2600 stall convertor..cant beat the price....sometime after xmas im gonna buy a b&m shifter.
and in the summmer the ole girl gets a new paintjob.

Since you are going through all of the troubble of changing the cam and intake, you had better match the rpm's of the cam to the intake! The single plane intakes are for rpm's up to 8000 + rpms. I think a dual plane would better fit a cam for both low end torque and efficency. Sure you want it to sound bad a$$, but fast and sounding good is a much better combo! I know that you can get a great setup for the edlebrock rpm intake with a cam to match for great hp and fuel mph.

Hey, Craiger!
Thanks for the nice words! I understand you sold the Z28... rumor or truth? I sold the Vette (I bought another one this last summer) and traded it in on a Aurora. Have to get serious you know... I'm supposed to be grown up!

John,
Sorry, the Z is still up for sale. It's in the auto trader, asking 12900$ I'm in no hurry to sell it but am willing to part with her for the right price
I really want a typhoon! Best of all worlds! all wheel drive and I'm sure all i have to do to make it move is add larger injectors, adjustible waste gate, and burn a chip. Just a better family car than the Z. Guess I"m supposed to be grown up too

and id have to agree with raiden,and kid camaro. get a g0d damn life
Mark, why in the hell would I drive 250 miles one way to race somebody who is just going to back out at the last minute? Plus there is no way in hell I would let you and your car get within 50 ft of my Camaro, I have seen how you drove your last car into the ground. I have more money in wheels alone then you have in your whole car, so how can you call it a POS? Why don't you show up at the January dyno gathering and show what you really have? Or since you are calling me out why don't YOU come down here?
Raiden, I didn't say anything for a few days on this, but it seemed to be going nowhere, it is just more

i dunno if some of you morons are aware of the fact that the red car was going through alot of mods/resto if yo uwanna call it that...you guys dont know the meaning of project car? i guess not. and i can easily call your car a pos....because its slow. how can you sit there and honestly call my car a pos? you havent seen it..yo udont know how it runs..or how it drives,suddenly every car that needs a paintjob is a pos huh? hmmm...congradulations on calling alot of the cars in CC a pos rodney...:lala:
your stupidity overwelms me ..it really does...i dont even know you...and you claim to know everything ive done...hmm thats odd aint it... anyways im done wasting my time typing ....ill be wiating for the invite....i nthe meantime stay outta my topic...post *****/cause trouble somewhere else.

I can't speak for anybody else in CC but I would love to see you show up in January. But you don't have the ***** to show up, ****ing story of your life though.
I don't believe that I ever called your car a POS you retard, go back and read your own post. I'm just curious why you consider my car a POS.
Since when is getting better tires not a performance modification? I couldn't get the tires I wanted in 15", so I had to buy 16" wheels. How do you know my car is slow? How can you not consider it a project? Why don't you answer some of these questions because I can't figure out why you think that I am the stupid one.
I don't know everything about you, just what I have read on these boards in the last year. Thats more than enough for me to say what I have said.
Oh yeah, and the jealous comment, LMFAO that is funny.

and umm...gimme an invite..ill be there end of story. second off..you do not know me...what you do know about me is the bull**** that people have said about me..granted some MIGHT be true..but ive apologized for it and end of story.
"Hmm, nice timing again Tony, I see Mark just posted on TGO about his sh*t box TA for the first time in a while, and now your back here to defend him.
Nobody likes a troll.
BTW That POS RECARO will never get below 14 seconds. Your too stupid to build it right"
does this ring a bell rodney? hmm i stand corrected...not only did you call it a POS you also called it a **** box....:lala: :lala:
and what in the bloody hell does tony have to do with building MY car? and explain how you know hes stupid rodney? youve never met him either...are you that intelligent that you just KNOW other peoples intelligence levels without actually meeting,or even knowing them? wowie i find that so interesting.
you see rodney im playing your game...your just like mike...always the first one willing to talk alotta ****,you 2 are worse then a bunch of old *** ladys bitching and moaning and gossiping.
id like to know how YOU get off claiming to know that i ran my transam into the ground,how my car is a pos and a ****box,and your claiming to know allllllll these facts about my life...by reading them on an internet message board? lol that right there shows me your either not that intelligent...or juts plain retarded.
and further more as i will say again...if im given a welcome invite to the january dyno gathering...i will run the transam on the rollers. no BS, pure fact ,it WILL be there. i will also add rodney i personally have nothing against you...since i dont really know you,but it apears you are mike's right hand jerk off man,monkey see,monkey do right dude? *waits for invite*

You still didn't answer why you think my car is a pos. I have read all of you stupid posts for the last year, watched that red car go from pretty nice to the crusher. You say I'm so stupid, how about when you decided to go with TPI, huh, that was good reading.
When I said that you are to stupid to build it on CC, I was referring to you moron, nobody likes a troll. This is getting boring.

btw bro..hows the stang doin?
lol ummm dude shut the bloody hell up about what i do and dont do with my car...you dont know me...nor know anything about me except for what you may have read...that doesnt qualify as knowing me. and uhh yeah only reason it went to the crusher is becuase i bought the black car...hmm,it had t tops,and full interior already in the color i wanted..WOW imagine that wonder why i kept the t top black car...the tpi for me was nothing but an experiment...and for those who do and do not know..it did run on my 350...albeit it ran like dirty ***. not too mention everybody was on my *** to get it running... lets see yyou take a 82 T/A and convert it too TPI with a stock harness 70 foot long...ask brandon he knows..EVEN brandon wouldnt mess with it. why screw with it..when i can throw a carb on it? and get better performance,and easier tuning. makes a bunch of sense to me...again how would you know that im too stupid to build my motor ? and it apears you be the troll dude... id lov eto hear your explanation of how exactly i am a troll... *waiting ever so patiently*

How many times do I have to say.
KEEP THE PETTY BICKERING OFF THE BOARDS!!!!!!
I'm sick of reading it, and its long over due for everyone to grow up and keep the **** off the boards in favor for PM's, IM's, E-mail's, Morse Code, Smoke signals, or whatever else you prefer.
Mark, personally I want to see your TA run the roller's and I'm sure there are plenty of other's who would love to see it run 'em beside's Rodney and myself.
Now with that said, this conversation is over.
