Default First time joining a forum... Long time reader

Hello from South Carolina. I frequently look for my answers from other people's questions, but thought it finally time to join and start asking my own questions. I'm building a pro touring 69 Firebird. It will have an iron 6.0, T56, with a Ford 9". Already have it off the rotisserie and started a lot of body mods. I also have another 69 Firebird, my first car (since 1979), that my mom bought in 1970. It's been a pro street car for 30 years and has been a Trans Am "clone" since 2000. Working on LS engines for both cars and will likely have a few questions from the experts on this site. Thanks for the add.

Mocking up the LS/T56 and thought I'd take a few measurements with the Hilborn intake that's for the Trans Am.

As you can see, I'm attempting a GTO style phantom grill that took two 68 bumpers to fabricate.

Welcome aboard! You made it a loooooooong ways by doing the smart thing and searching out info first. Beauty machines you have there we built a 68 bird a few years ago 6.0 4L80 so those machines are especially nice to see. Hope the rest of the build goes well
