I figured Id make a thread on my winter "projects"
Project #1:
My hotcam 355 camaro went a best of 12.2 this year and will be running the LE2 setup for next year. Im going to tidy up the engine bay, and clean everything up nice.
Project #2: Earlier this year I purchases a 1995 trans am that was seized by the police. The interior was Gutted but it had several bolt ons and was a 6spd car. It cant be Registered again, so I bought a 1993 Firebird v6 car.
This car will be getting the Fresh rebuilt heads that were on my camaro, along with the hotcam.
Heres the progress Ive made so far, and some pictures of my swap canidate, and my camaro!

...the "formula wing" is the same as the v6 man...id just take off the gay FIREBIRD emblems off the side and leave it blank...i'd leave the bumpers too, it'd just look like a formula, i dont much care for the lt1 trans am sideskirts/front bumper, formulas look much cleaner to me.
