Default Hello From Vancouver Washington!!!

Hello,

Thanks for the letting me enjoy this site... Very new to the forum stuff so I hope I'm doing this right!!!

I have had lots of cars since I've started driving, here are a few from:
78 Nova 6cyl. 3 spd on the tree
72 El Camino 406 and T400.
78 Gold Edition Trans Am 400 and T350
Couple of Mustangs and Mopars.
And Yes HONDAS ( 91 Civic Wagon)

But now my son and I are Building a LS 5.3 4L60E powered Fox Body 4 Eye Mustang.

I wrench for a living and love to work at home... Work Hard to Play Harder.

Thanks again. Tony McCullough AKA 1sleeper5.0

Thank you very much... I have been a long time fan of GM and Ford but NEVER TO MIX THE TWO.... but now that I have build lots of GM and Ford's. I have to say GM LS series engine is superior. Power per dollar you just can't beat it... Thanks again hope to make my son proud with this and build not just a car better bond that you can't ever replace....

I can relate! My FD RX7 is swapped for the same reasons. No more blown apex seals The FD is also the first car I don't think I can ever sell. Already owned it for 3+ years, which is highly unusual for me considering my past track record lol

Enjoy your LSx! They are hard to beat for bang of the buck.
