Hey everyone,
I have been reading around on the board for a long time now and it really helped ALOT.
and its very addiciting..! lol

So my name is Ole, 20 years young, and I´m from and live in Germany.

For 2 years now I own a 99 Z28, A4, 2,74 axle, with 55k miles on it.
She got full suspension mods, subframe connectors...etc., Koni and K&W suspension, lowered about 2", 245 on 17x9 TTM all the way around, Lid, (free ram air),3" magnaflow catback, and a predator tune...so not too much done to it...
Love of my life!

2 weeks ago my car was running on 7 pistons, took my valvecovers off and i found out it was missing a pushrod...

i took my motor out, found one push rod snapped a half, and another one bent...

i will open a new thread in the internal section to go into more details.

Im happy to be here and i could not manage my Life without ls1tech.com! So, thanks alot community

Welcome to the forums, brother. I used to be stationed in Germany when I was in the Army. I was in Dexheim, over by Wiesbaden and Meinz-Kastel. That was the funnest 2 years of my life. I hope you get that engine taken care of.
