Im sure that for the ones that are around here Ill see. I go to out cruising around on memorial and well just about everywhere in tulsa on friday nights. Also im at just about every testNtune while on saturdays im at the midnights. If im not out then I must be sick lol. Im always out at either yhe strip or the street cruising. I havent been out any really this yet but i will start showing up in april most likely. Ive been storing the camaro and saving my money for mods. I am however going to be at the test-n-tunes this month. In fact this last saturday I made my best pass there on motor runing 12.55 at 107.90 with a 1.76 60' and two other passes that were almost the same of 12.63. But if any of you see me out just come over and say hi ill be looking around.

Man if your looking for other local f-body guys to meet & hang out with you really need to come on over & join our local board. Guys on there always go to the track & someitmes they just get together to hang out.

And for wheels I'd look at Tomzwheels. He is a sponsor here & his pricing is damn near unbeatable.

Hey man. Hell I don't blame you for storing it, save some money and miles off of it. Yeah I have done some more stuff to it. TSP 5.3 heads, TR 224 cam and a performabuilt tranny with a 3600 stall. The lastime I ran in Nov. with the stock trans and stall I got a 12.52 at 112 MPH. I haven't been able to make it out to the track yet due to some problems with the flexplate. IF... your still boltons and stall only I'll be a little ahead of you in the 1/4 mile. Oh yeah I just got back from getting a set of 17x9 and 17x10.5 wheels with some 315 Nitto DRs put on. So I hope to be about 11.8~11.7 on motor now.

Yea as of right now im still boltons and stall. Best bass on motor with the nittos is 12.55 at 108. I plan on doing my h/c package here by the end of the month or so if everything goes my way which it should. As for now untill that time comes I bet we would be a pretty good race u on motor and me on the juice. Best pass on the nitrous was 11.58 but I was running consistent 11.7, and sometimes 11.8 depending on how traction was. Are you doing gears, And how much did you end up paying for your H/C , and what was it to install it or did you do it yourself?

Yeah I think you will pass me on the juice but it would probly come down to who ever has better traction. I paid 1200 for the TSP stage 2.5 5.3 heads, about 300 for gaskets and head bolts, and 380 for the cam. I did the H/C myself and it was a royal pain in the ***. But if you have someone that has done it before and knows how to get all the hard stuff it wouldn't be too much of a hassle. Hell just give me a call and I would help you do it. I'm gonna keep the stock gearing because they arent that important with a stalled auto.
