Yah know, for the longest time I was putting up a post every weekend that there was a show there. And unfortunatly I was the only one I ever saw there or I got 0 replys back about it. If we could get a group to go, that would be great and I'd be down for it, especially after my intake swap. Even if we can't get a group to go, if you just wanna meet up and look around, I'm usually there. Give me a holla!

guess i should get that steering column put back together then.. just let me know what's up.. anyone know of a good body shop that is decently priced? looking for some work, unless some one has some experience..

sorry about the turbo's.. how much do they push out? is it better than having a 350? did you do the work yourself?

Lets just say that Willie's "beast" is in a catagory of it's own. This car is sick, even before the turbo's it was sick. Now.......well, the picture tells it all. I'm just looking forward to seeing the final product at the track. Now that should be fun!

Hey Willie that thing looks like a beast! what size of turbos are thoes? At what RPM do you think youll see full boost at? I also like the way your building the 305 for that insted of a normal 350. I was thinking about doing a twin setup like yours but im a little scared about the pumbing issues that will come up.

Hey Hey, kinda late for this post Sgt0704. 3rd gen V8 was talking about me. Me and 3rd gen go to the same high school and are in the automotive vocational class, driving 3gen's in yuma. Theres a few that are hotrod material. theres also a marine here in yuma driving a bada$$ 350 TPI 92 RS. You should look out for it its green and has white racing stripes and has the 18 inch snipers (i think) anyway just stopping by to say hello. Heres a few pics of mine (currently being built (350) check out the signature)
