Unfortunately cutting O.T. and re valuating my child support I am barely making ends with my primary job. Literally working for 1/2 price. So I got a 2nd P.T. job. I am somewhat excited because after 2+ years I can probably finish my car with the extra cash flow. Just thought I would share the news with you LT1 folks because if all plans out like it should, there should be another LT1 on the road soon.

 

From the looks of your sig its gonna be a scary fast one too!!!! !!

 

Hope so.... Theres a few h/c ls1's here in town I want to take out! I just hope everything works out good, especially when it comes time to get it tuned... That **** is like Chinese to me.

 

i almost got a second job wen i started my build but just took on more hours here. but good luck with it

 

yeah i just started my second job today, lol, i can afford a little bit here and there, but with this second job ill be able to do a lot pretty quick, probly paint first, lol

 

I got all the expensive **** to get. Need to make at least 7,000+.... Good thing starting pay 12.10. Not bad for a pt job. But I will have to bust *** at this job instead of sitting in front of the pc like I'm doing right now....

 

yea i dn how u guys do it man, i got a buddy at work who has to pay child support and the poor guy loses like almost half his check each week... i would be so ****** pissed lol

 

im just the opposite LOL if my step kids dad would pay child support i could mod my car much quicker

 

The things we do for our cars...
Props to you man, good luck with your build.

 

Yea i get 18 and some change but after taxes and cs it breaks down to 9.xx an hour. I'm serious about working for half price. What sucks is that I still pitch in for all there extra curricular activities, school clothes (there my kids i can't see them in rags), keep them all times there out of school including all summer long.... I'm not bitching or anything but god I can't even claim one of my 2 kids at the end of the year.


ss.slp.ls1 your right the **** I go through to get our cars fast/running. At the end it will be worth it. I'll especially be glad when people stop asking "hey is your car almost done?" yea for the past 2 years everyday...!

 

If you have really good luck you'll get taken back to court for more child support when your kids mother finds out. Hope that doesn't happen. I've had a second job for over two years to pay for go fast parts. You'll notice that you won't use nearly as much of it as you think for modding. Good luck.

 

ya that happened to me she found out i got a 2nd job and back to court.667 a month for one that hurts

 

That's the good thing about this job because I can set my own schedule. I will still show up on Thursday's and still get them every other weekend. She lives about an hour away so if I don't tell her she will not find out.

 

Ah I am so glad I got a vasectomey

 

 

that's hilarious... good luck with the car man!

 

You sir hit the nail on the head. 8 months later and and I have collected a few more parts. I got the short block together (1,800.00 bucks later, not including the cost of parts that went in there) Got a custom A.I. turbo cam,off the self 62cc TFS heads, OBD1 PCM and LT1 Edit with data cable.... Need all the little odds and end but that will have to wait. I've got smart and am trying to get myself out of debt, so I can live more comfortably. If all goes good I should free up about 600.00 bucks a month by the end of this year. Still got my PT job as well. It's off and on I recently started working there again, after two months off. Also If we do get a bonus this year I will get whats left and finish this summumabitch...

 

I worked overtime for 4 months with almost no days off to afford finishing my build. I am putting my sister through university and helping my mother support her monthly allowance as well. It was well worth it in the end when I fired her up

Good luck with the build bro.

 

Thats commendable man. Good luck.

 

I will be taking the 2nd job route soon. My wife and I decided to have another kid so come April I won't have any mod money if I don't.
