Default new to here

Hey everyone new to the sight
come from a background of stangs and chevy trucks
then got into the world of shhh.....imports
here are a couple cars
1948 gmc stepside 383 stroker all motor 575hp 611ft/lbs
1969 chevy stepside 350 around 400whp
1980 stang with 302
1979 stang not much done
1989 mazda mx6 with over 400whp (big turbo)but the exploded trans or broken shafts on me what seemed like every week got old
so I picked up the 92 from someone moving out of state for cheap
and decided to part out the mazda and put into the camaro
then let the wife take the camaro out and the 305 went (go figure what are the odds the one time I let her drive it)
I decided (after seeing what my buddy's WS6 turbo was doing)
that I would go the LS1 route instead of just building an LT1 as a replacement
all modifications are in sig minus gauges and what not

Thanks for having me here
I have been reading alot here and better than some other boards
