Welcome To TGO! Post up some pics of the car besides the one on da left

 

i just got the car a few hours ago so it was dark.ill take and post some pics of my new lady as soon as i wash her tomorrow.

 

You dont bore an engine block to get more performance out of it. You bore it because the cylinder walls are scratched and its not usable as is. The extra 5 cubic inches are just a bonus and not worth much overall.

Welcome to the SoCal group! Almost all of us are fuel injected TPI so we wont be much help in the engine department. You can check out the Carb forum for info from those guys.

 

aiight here are some pics of my z28 that i took today.let me know what you think

 

Wow very clean car, int too!

(Oh, sorry I though it was a tpi? I don't know anything about carb.
Good luck!)

clean car are you keeping the wheels or swapping, some single line irocs would look good on it, some different rims would make the car looks so much better imo. and the million dollar ? whats car is better at least for you your previous import or the camaro. i know when i swapped my old integra for my iroc i did not look back, only import i plan on owning is a sport bike lol

 

yeah i think my camaro is my favorite car so far.i dont think ill ever go back to owning and import.unless i get my hands on an evo.but thats not happening.i have too many plans for my car.i plan on getting some corvette z06 rims.i took some new recent pictures so here are a couple plus a video of my car at the shop today getting a custom steiner cam install.will have the after video when i go pick it up.
