The V has headers and an intake...was planning on a smaller upper pulley, injectors and a tune but it's still under warranty till the end of this year.

I'll run it sometime soon here. I need another helmet, mine expired.

To be fair, I'm closer to Minnesota than you guys out in Washington.
Most of the events I go to are also located near BIR or our local track in Glyndon, MN.

I also feel like the only person from ND on the entire board.
Sure theres more, but I dont see many often!

My car is still in the garage anyway. Damn weather.

This section sucks because all of the cool kids from Tacoma, Seattle, Everett and there-abouts all jumped ship when there was a fall-out with the guys that run 'tech. Now it's just a bunch of dudes from Oregon and the Columbia River that are lame...

Kidding.

Is that why everyone bailed? Like you guys have been saying, this section was the **** years ago. When I sold my '94 Z28 I fell off of here and have definitely noticed the difference. I was told everyone jumped to another forum.

Anyways, I'm down for cruises and gatherings, but with most you guys being down in or near OR I may only make a couple.

I love being a lame dude from Oregon. I'm proud of my hybrid bird that gets 40mpg and tops out at 72.6mph. Maybe I will let you sit passenger sometime and you can stroke my shift **** with both hands.

Kidding.

What heads did u end up going with? And you totally should run it, when you have some money for a rearend then you can really beat on it. When we went to the Sandy car show last year I had fun cruising in the bird, ran good.

I have no interest in beating on my car. I ended up doing some budget TSP Stage 2.5 LS6 heads along with 37# injectors and LS7 lifters.

Car goes to Wong's on June 2nd for the install. I've kicked the idea around about selling it to fund a C5, but everything I find or want is damn near $22-30k. Then I'd have to put my touch on it on top of that, so there goes another 5k+. Gotta be realistic about it. I enjoy the Bird for what it is. So at this point I'm gonna keep it.
