Default Noobie to ls1tech

Hello, my name is justin, have had my 2001 Camaro SS for about 2 years now, just starting to do some heavy mods to it, thought id join the community here and get to know some knowledgeable people. I also have a 1974 Trans Am dragstrip project that is taking forever to finish.

Its got volant CAI, descreened maf, ported throttle body, hooker super comp longtubes and ORY, slp loudmouth 1 catback, Transgo shift kit and b&m cooler, and an NOS wet kit with all the bells and whistles, unfortunately i think im running out of fuel with the walbro 255 i have.

For suspension its got eibach springs, hotchkis strut brace, LCA's, adjustable panhard bar, and UMI tubular subframe connectors. Quite a list, but all the work was done by me.

The T/A imma have to dig up pictures or take some, project kinda slowed when i bought the SS, but basically setting it up to run 9's or better, have a bored 455 at 8:1 compression ready for some boost. Right now im workin on stiffening the chassis and getting the floors and 12 pt. cage in.
