Default New here

hi, I have an 85 vett that has been sitting in the garage now for about a year due to multiple problems with keeping it running. I have got a lot of reading ahead to learn about what to swap into it. I also have a 2000 cougar which is a daily driver that has been modded with I/H/E and SVT UIM and TB lower 3 inches. I know the cougar platform and alot of imports but Im completely new with LS1's.

Forgot to add I'm from the st.louis area

No I don't have an f-body but from what my friends have told me this is the site I need to check out to learn what all is going to have to be done for the motor swap in the vett. Between all of my friends I have gotten to ride in a wide range of cars.
low 12 sec probe turbo
turbo integra 13's once tuned
g35 stock
laser turbo AWD tune will be over 400 AWHP
evo's
240's with RB25 swap
camero with a stroker kit and some more fun 460RWHP N/A with nitrous on order
c5 vette
srt 4
supras
my plan is to learn as much as I can and get this swap out of the way and the rest is down hill. cosmetics and audio are no problem along with suspension.
