Default Newb In Delaware

Hey guys im a new camaro owner here to soak up some knowledge from you guys and hopefully share some as well.Its a 2000 Z-28 that is...was red... i plan on fixing it up and painting lemans blue( untill i see another color id like on a 4th gen)

Recently purchased my car off a buddy of mine it needs a clutch and i plan on going with a LS7 clutch kit... the car i basically stock (SLP airlid/Maf, exhaust) but my plans are to maybe go faster... LOL


As far as the screen name if you need an explanation its because i also own a 2002 SVT Lightning that went threw the meat grinder and i pieced it back together. Bone stock it runs 13.2's all day...

Btw my car ran a 12.9 with a slave cylinder starting to go bad according to the previous owner.

Welcome to the site. It's definitely a good place to soak up advice and knowledge for just about any kind of mod for our cars. There's a handful of us f-bodies, and a couple of good vendors/sponsors around Delaware on here.

Le Mans blue should make a good looking car.

Lol and don't feel bad about the lightning. I'm on here and have an 02 z28, but I daily drive an F-150.

I'd go with a z hood or a cowl. There are better ram air options than the one built into SS hoods.
