you had how long to get your car in the garage before the snow fell? sounds like a deal that was your fault to begin with here.

Not much could've been done when there was another car taking it up with a dead carb... not all of us can have an empty garage like you.

Well you got me beat. I've only started mine and let it run a few minutes. Too much snow for it to move.

pretty sure cars move even when they dont run, pull it out tarp and sand bag the car that dont run put yours in the garage. Go rent a storage unit and put your car in it, tarp and sand bag bag your car. My garage has my car in it on jack stands i dont think id call that empty.

So far this winter amazingly hasnt stopped me from working on a car in an apt complex garage. Just put a clutch in my buddies 00 z28 couple weeks ago, I was never so happy to get that job done.

Man I was kinda hoping to see somebody from around Hastings reply here so I knew that at least there was some representation of the F-body there. Guess there is nobody here from the tri-city area? Kinda a bummer as I will be there for 3-4 days in May & I always take my cars up there for those few days I'm up there.

Just the same setup with me just waiting to get it back. Depending where i am sitting down the road maybe 4-5 years i may do a warhawk build with some type of FI. Seems like i get something fast and people are right there with me. Lets say 800-900 rwhp thru the auto but like i said i need to get a house next year and a couple room mates and see where i am at. I may actually end up selling the TA if i have to. But i think with my current setup i will be pretty fast being NA.

Nothing really new planned for the year that wasn't already being planned in the fall. Just finally all came together this month.

For the T/A - Comp Cam, LT's, Port & Polish. I might toss on some spare 3.73s I have laying around that don't even have 5k miles.

For the Z28 - Since I just got the motor dropped in place in August its just a few minor details. Stepping up to either 1.6 full RR or 1.7 since I still have some room for additional lift & the heads can still flow more, SFC's, complete interior restore, maybe a T-56 swap if the Trans I'm looking at is in good enough condition.
