Wow, it's been a while since I did this....so here we go
Well lets see, I should start with what I drive
1969 Yenko Nova Clone
496 cid BBC
Stuffed with forged stuff and topped by a set of ported Merlins
Th400 tranny brake
It went 10.79 @ 127 last summer, but that was on the small block 427
This year I should see high nines

1988 Chevy Blazer....35's and a 355

Coming soon, a 68-72 Chevy pick up powered by the 454 I have in the garage


Now that you have seen what I drive you're probably asking yourself WTF is he doing on LS1TECH......well heres the story

I port heads in my spare time, and while researching some 8.1 stuff I stumbled across this board. I am friends with Tierod and Slow6.0, so when I actually saw the board they constantly rant and rave about, I decided to join up and see what the modern world was like.....
I will probably spend most of my time ghosting the tech sections seeing if I can pick up any new tricks, so this could be my first and last post, byt I figured I would do the intro thingy so if I do post, some one might know where I'm coming from...


Nice board btw....
