Like the title says, Im new here, and yes Im a cop....
Dont be scared, Im not looking to get anyone in trouble, in fact I try to use what I know, and my abilities to help people. Im sure many that recognize me from LTX can attest to that.
My name is Larry, and I have been a cop for 8+ years in a small town in Montgomery County PA.
Ive owned 4 F-bodies, with my current being my second one:
-1992 TA
-1996 Camaro Z28 (currently owned)
-1995 Camaro Z28 (purchased for my ex g/f, I let her keep it)
-1993 Camaro Z28 (donor 4 procharger/intercooler and misc items for the 96)
My current car is again a 1996 camaro Z28. I bought it completly stock with 120,ooo mi and drove it for a few years. I deided to order a motor from a guy named ERIC PARISH (CON ARTIST) for the new blower aplication. It was supposed to be a fully forged 383 stroker. The motor looked great when it arrived however a year into driving it (about 3k mi) I snapped the crank driving home.... After tear down I found I was ripped off... the forged internals were composed of a cast 383 crank, the splayed mains were still 2 bolt and the list goes on and on.....

Long story short the motor was stripped and we rebuilt it at the garage I hang out at. Its now a 385 stroker with true splayed mains, fully forged internals etc etc etc.....
If you have any questions, or if there is anything I can help you with, feel free to PM or EMAIL me (popo8@comcast.net). And I will do my best to help.
And if you see a pic of me and you think I pulled you over.... let me know!
Now for some pics:
