Default New to the site.

Thought I'd introduce myself, my name is Becca. I'm looking at getting a WS6 sometime within the near future, so I figured I might as well start reading up on different things. Always been a fan of F-bodies, especially 4th gen. I was in love with 4th gen Camaro's, but now the T/A's have caught my interest. I know nothing about v8's, as right now I drive a Cobalt. But I'm definitely willing to learn, and I've heard this is the place to do that So, thanks for all of the help, in advance.

We have a pretty good core of F-Body folk just south of you in Toledo, to include a girl! lol. I just say that because it's only a matter of time before the leg humpers arrive. She knows quite a lot about these cars, I'll PM you her user name. I'm sure she would love to bring another woman into this wonderful hobby!

Oh, and welcome to LS1Tech!

Sounds good to me, I won't have an F-body for a few months, but I thought might as well start learning about them.

Bay City here. Are you leaning more towards a Trans am? I see alot of Camaros but not alot of TA's. I bought mine last year and absolutely love it! I was previously a Mustang owner and didn't realize I was missing out.

Yeah, I used to be all about 4th gen Camaro's, but just recently the T/A's have caught my attention. So hopefully within the next few months I'll be getting a ws6. Never was a Ford fan
