Long time no post... updates
Ok, well I sold/parted out/junked my 92 camaro nearly 2 years ago. 2 years later I can safely say it was the worst decision I have ever made with a car.
Anyway, I went to the world of DSM's (a truely ****ty world I might ad) And I have yet to get the car running reliably... in a years time...
I will hopefully be starting a new job next week, and you can bet that this damn DSM is on the chopping block and I will be looking for a good 90-92 V6 5 speed again.
Why I got rid of it? the motor blew and I should have seriously swapped in a 3.4 and been done with it... but I was stupid and got rid of it.
Let the bashing for my stupid decision begin...just don't be too hard please... I saw the light and am coming back.

wel I see that the pacesetters have been put into production (they were still testing when I left) and I also see that someone is making a replacement intake manifold too!
Hmm seems I came back at a good time...

Find either a basket case or a fully done ride.
Made a mistake.....
ABSOLUTLY NOT!
IT was a decision ya had to make at that moment, that's all.
Some personal decisions I keep fighting and I know I will have success upon my time....Ah well.....
PS as long as I got place to store rides the time is soon approaching...
Hell I just saw a photo of me & my 1967 Camaro Convert at the Santa Monica Beach, a sunset pic.
That pic was taken back in 1990 and that was one of the last rides I had taken in that car....yet I still own the ride.....was hoping to have it running "by now" but things happened, oh well....
Hang in there, there is good times ahead!

I have got over 5 grand in this car (3 in the engine alone) and it still has yet to run reliably, I actually just got done replacing rings that had maybe 20 minutes or run time on them...
So yeah, this thing is a piece of work... and has been a royal PITA since I bought it...
