who built this masterpiece? 
ive been working on my partners car this summer.. hes part of my "posse" or also a "wolfpack"
its a 1989 camaro irocz originally a 305 tpi and 700r-4
he said "the hell with a built tpi, not enough for me! unless i add a sc or nitrous"
i said "piece of cake lets install an ls1, a t56, and a 4th gen dashboard."
he said "ok"
i said "let me know when your ready"
once we gathered all the parts i got to work on my days off..
total of 8 days through out the month with some delays..
engine looked healthy when purchased and added few goodies. we need to get an exhaust set up, egr block offs, dual fan set up, install the steering shaft and some little issues we came across and get the car tuned!
not sure if i could've done it with my eyes closed but were glad that the car finally cranked over..

that looks like the equivalence of a 5 tier wedding cake with extra sprinkles, double frosting, and ice cream. (cookiesNcream/mintNchip)
hmm posse sounds cool and mysterious but, wolfpack does have a nice ring to it.
So, looks like we just added one more member to our wolfpack, so where there was 3, now there is 4 members to our wolfpack.

By any chance would the camaro i posted in my thread happen to be an ex posse member of your wolfpack? The car was built and purchased from the valley. Im not saying you built it just maybe someone that might of hang out with you.

Pfffttt...that's cake, not to highjack your thread but look what I built with my eyes closed 
In all seriousness it might be too much power for the owner going from under 200rwhp to over 400rwhp once the exhaust is on there. He would have never got there with the TPI boat anchor

HAHA I heard that you like to talk **** for your brother on thirdgen.org to the people who don't swing from his nuts cyber. You think your being funny but not only do people think your a douche on here but thirdgen.org as well 
. Talk **** on my car when you got something for it, not just a third gen with a ls1 swap (like half of thirdgen.org) and a "Nice" dash

get ur facts straight bro.. u must spend some quality time on tgo looking at our build threads. if so thank you for reading my build but my original build thread is no longer there.
btw if you ever post non tpi related topics on thirdgen.org so cal forum they are biased towards the "bastardization" and they will place restrictions on your opinions..
as for me i dont need people "swinging off my nuts" go start your own thread of your accomplishments and certificates..

. Talk **** on my car when you got something for it, not just a third gen with a ls1 swap (like half of thirdgen.org) and a "Nice" dash For the record all I did was call out die hard TPI guys on tgo.org who were threatened by simple LSx swaps and claimed the TPI was superior in 3rd gens
If iI wanted to build a high HP car with poor street manners, no interior/amenities and set up for the 1/4 mile I would have (probably for less $$). I could say the same "come talk **** when your car has paint and gets 28 mpg"
To each their own
