Default New guy

Hey everyone! Im a racer from way back,but been out of it for a while.Just gettin back in.Still learning all about this "online" stuff.So forgive me if Im not to sharp with all this.I have a 1983 Z28-406-350trans/wbrake-some NOS(not used yet)10 point DiamondFab chromemolly cage-Spohn coilovers front/rear-mostly Spohn suspension. All Mark williams in the rear. Car has run in low 11's 10 years ago.Ive made changes since then,but still have buggs.havnt got full pass yet motor or NOS.Maybe this spring!If anyone knows Scott from Drivelinesolutions,his car was based off mine over 10 years ago.Now I have a lotta catching up to do!
Here's a pic of my Z28 an my brother's 98 TA(which runs very well,but needs a tune bad) Thanks,Lyle

Thanks everyone!Im still learning when,where,and how to post stuff.If anyone has tips on either my Z or my brothers TA ,let me know.We both have engine break-up problems.My Z28 sat for 7 years,so i think mine is valve springs.My brother's TA has 4.10 gear,600lift cam.4000rpm stall.He's banging the factory rev limiter every gear down the track and running 12.50s.Whatcha think?

Plus I have other pics of my Z build up.Where do I post them(If anyone is intrested)?
