Talking just throwing out my entrance...

hey everyone..just wanted to say hello and post up stating I just joined in through a friend of mine...(Cross)...

I just picked up my 2nd F-Body about a week ago...its a 1998 Firebird Formula with an LS1/T56 driveline...

here are a few current pics of her...
















I have some parts here that need to be put on and a hood i am going to pick up on Saturday so i will get a few more good pics after those items are on and ready to go...

and just in case anyones wondering...so far it has a

-K&N drop in
-B&M Short Throw
-C5 Corvette 18" rims

soon to be on the car

-WS-6 Ram Air hood
-Magnaflow Catback
-Comp Cam

and then i will finish the exhaust with a set of long tubes and some high flow cats and some motor work..then i will work on some suspension stuff...

well i figured i could update my stuff a little bit...

i have added the Magnaflow catback and the WS6 Hood.....

got a set of Pacesetter LT and an ORY sitting here with the cam waiting to go on the car....

im also in the process of getting a Spec Stage 3+ and flywheel since my throw out took a shyt a few nights ago...

not looking forward to pulling the trans out but hey while its out maybe ill go ahead and put in the LTs....

too bad i cant afford my tubular kmember too...

oh i wish someone would just give me like $10000 so i can finish my car....

or maybe find some damn good deals on what i need...

i have the p.s. ory i believe...bought the lt and ory as a package deal...

thanks everyone...im hoping to get the hood painted soon and get a TA rear bumper....but i gotta get the car fixed first...

if anyone is in the Tucson Area and wants to get an F body meet together and we can get some work done on our cars it would be great...i got 2 buddys on here that are in the midst of motor swaps...so thats taking alot of our time and everything...lol
