Lol dont worry about your english. There are people form america that cant write as well as you can!

With that said. You have a very impressive build! The only thing that i could see you having problems with at the track is the LS1 driveshaft. They are very weak and your putting down a ton of pwer.

Default Bragging rights

Hi All.
I just wanted to brag some, since im the father of Palmi the owner of this Blown 25th T/A. I wanted to point out that he is only 19 years old and has been working on this car since he was 16. It started out that me and my friend were buying repairable 4th gens (quite some) from a guy in California.
We fixed them and sold them, some of them with some profit. Once we needed a rear clip and the guy sent us a picture of this car and wanted to sell us the rear half of it. I called him right of way and asked him to please not cut this car up and send it to me in one piece. This was in 2004 when Palmi was only 12 years of age. I put it in the backyard where it sat rotting until 2008 when he took it over and started to work on it. He got the driving licence in 2009 and started driving it that summer. The year after he put in a Procharger that we had. That was too much for the old motor, so the rest of summer he was just idling on it. In the winter he bought the 396 and the heads and everything to put the new motor together. We also had a 4L60E from RPM-Transmissions and he bought a Coan converter. This is how he has been driving it this summer. Now he has parked it and today he is taking the rear out to put in a new Moser 9-inch and the new fuel system from Lonnies-Performance. This winter he(we) will also rig up the Procharger. We hope that everything will be ready for racing next summer.
He pays himself for everthing bought for this project. He is attending school and working at a Body-shop to finance all this. Like he said on an Icelandic message-board: When my friends spend their time and money on boose and nonsence he spends his on his car.
So I think I can brag some

Regards
Saevar

That dolly you made for the front suspension to roll it around is pretty nice.
