Wow that was a long time ago when I posted in this thread. 176ish as of now.

'86 Camaro SC, black /w silver racing stripes
2.8l MPFI/700r4 /w special 2nd gear delete option
In search of new v8 engine & transmission, now contemplating t5 swap to get me out of this mess.
Misc Mods: Cut air box, '83 Firebird spoiler.
Performance Parts: MSD coil, Accel 8mm wires, SplitFire plugs, Gabriel hijackers.
Audio Mods: Pioneer DEH-P3000, two 12" Optimus Pro Audio subs in hand-made enclosure each powered by a 260 watt Optimus amp. Working on shaving the box for weight.

Let's see... 168k on the clock now... 700R4 died its final death on the operating table, retrofitted with T5. 2.8 is dying on the operating table with a little coaxing from 5-7psi... 3.4 purchased today and in prep. She's silver with blue stripes now, has no stereo at all, the coil went into the '88, plugs are $0.99 bosch supers... heh. And now I feel old, too.
