Default Another new guy

I've been lurking here and shopping the incredible classifieds gathering parts for my LS2/6 speed swap into my 64 Buick Skylark "company car" but figured it's about time I announce myself.

Right now, it rocks a complete Hotchkis TVS system, Baer Brakes and Rushforth Wheels wrapped in BF/Goodrich rubber and motivating it is the stock 300" V8 and Powerglide which is being swapped in short order but I'm still hunting down a few parts and trying to gain some knowledge.

Thumbs up Nice!

Thats a beautiful car! I just recieved a set of rushforth super spokes from UPS last week. They are for a 69 Camaro that still has a way to go. Your wheels look great! I am new to this site also, I found it looking for LS motor parts. Good Luck on yours!

Thanks guys. The LS2 is well under way and back from the machine shop. I've gathered up all but the last few parts to bolt it back together and will start a build thread very shortly.

Anybody want to make a good deal on some stock LS2 injectors?? It's one of the last few pieces I need!
