Well not that new. my names Justin, I've been a member on here for a little while now browsing and buying stuff for my 6.0 budget street build.
I'm an automotive tech. Graduated from the University of Northwestern Ohio last December in 09. Im 6 months away from being ASE certified in suspension steering, and brakes. I enjoy rebuilding transmissions actually preferably the 700r/4l60 as well as overhauling a t5 in about 10 mins lol.
presently work at at machine shop in Chillicothe Ohio.
As for vehicles i have a:
87 Iroc-z with a 355 tpi /built 700r
96 camaro v6 turd/future street car. currently being completely stripped and gutted. going with a Jegster chassis ladder bar setup and 8-10 point
98 blazer

Think that about sums it up!

Yea sure!
The 96 isn't much to look at though since its still in its early beginnings, and i have chosen to concentrate on building the engine at this point.
The 87 I have completely restored myself and also layed the paint. Came out pretty good i think!
The blazers pretty much my beater. Rims are 22x11's and are sprayed matt black pearl as of now.
