Default New to muscle scene.

That's right, I have switched sides. I have been in the import scene for quite some time now, until I have come to a realization, they are money pits. I just bought a 98 camaro z28. Cheaper than my Honda S2000 I'm trying to get rid of....hint*hint. So like I said new to the scene and never really worked on v8s a whole lot except to change oil and tires. So I'm excited to learn about them and any insight will be highly appreciated. I do have plans for the 'camaro but the divorce I'm going though is going to make real drawn out lol thanks a lot and take it easy
