Next week is my last week of school. My headers should be in by about then. I got a big project in the works. All of these parts have been bought, but all haven't been shipped yet. I should have them by next week though.

For the Formula
TPI Heads
Chrome Vavle Covers
LT1 cam
Jet-Hot Coated Hooker Shorties
MSD 8.5mm Superconductor Wires
Morso Wire Looms

For the little white car
A set of wheels
a lot of cleaning
exhaust

 

LT1 cam, 3.42 gears, posi, strut tower brace, stereo (as always), ultimate tbi mods, new front end

 

Cam and head gasket swap to lower compression and make it "boost friendly". Twin 670 TBI setup with a turbocharger. Haltech controlled, 10 psi of boost. I'm looking into the camshaft selection (hydraulic roller - currently an XR276 from Comp Cams) and if I want to completely pull the engine to have the block and heads o-ringed or not; it's already ARP studded, but if I ever want to up the boost beyond 10 it'd be nice to already have the block 'ringed'.

...and maybe... finally... paint. Maybe.

Hooyah.

3.42 Posi Disc Rear End
SLP Headers
VAFPR
Complete Ignition Setup
Control Arms
Control Arm Relocators
Torque Arm
Panhard Rod
NX Nitrous kit with progressive controller

That should keep me busy for a while

 

Hmm I've got a couple.

1) First, get my '91 Formula running. Then do LT1 cam, TPI exhaust, 3.42 rear, B&M TC, and interior swap.

2) Second, finish my '87->'91 GTA conversion and get 'er painted.

3) Work on twin turbo 3.8 conversion for #1

4) Find good 2ndgen T/A body for my 400 TBI project.

5) Find bad 3rdgen firebird to fix to get rid of all the excess parts in garage.

I'll be lucky to get both 1 and 2 done!
