Default Newbie up in NH

Well i'm a new guy here. Not new to LS1's however. I used to own a 1998 Z28.

I'm currently in the VERY begining stages of finally building my dream car out of a 1995 Camaro Z28.

I'm here for information on Chassis / suspension / engine etc..... So I can build my car the way i'd like.

My goal is to build an 8 second street driven LQ4 twin turbo that scares the ever living S#!* out of me!

I've had some fun cars in the past but the fastest car i've ever owned was my 1994 Chevy cavalier 3400 swap turbocharged on 10 psi !!! What a blast that was but wouldn't hold together.

It's time for me to bite the bullet and dump ALL my money into a car that is worth it!

Thanks for any and all information and fun I may have in the future here on LS1tech!
