I'm pretty sure the frame is bent because driving back to the house the car was pulling hard to the left. The engine is fine, tranny is fine. I might be buying a 92 Z28 hard from a guy in Gwinnett, Ga. for $5500. The car is in mint shape. All I can say is WOW!!
Oh no! Sorry to hear but it sounds like you are going to fix it up versus swap. Man again very sorry to hear, I left to early to get a ride with ya and I hope you get her fixed so it wasn't my only chance!

No, I'm sorry to hear that you lost your future father-in-law. Family is always more important than this car crap. I'll send up some prayers you!!!

As far as the Iroc goes; My wife and I agreed to leave the 92 in stock form because it's in such good condition. You have to see it in person to believe it.
But of course I already tweaked the tune. Again sorry to about your future father-in-law.

Got the mount in, just need someone to hold a wrench on the bolts up top. Ds safety loop won't fit, 4'' is just to much. Controller is programed and fenders are rolled, also got the exhaust clamps on.

That's good then you can bring it to Action performance to be installed. Maybe we can hit the track this weekend to hang out because I have money, so get that WB installed!!!

Front lowering springs are done. Once Craig shows me where he had the wideband at I will get it put on. Probably going to remove the peice, he told me $10 bucks to weld it and he would tig it if I wanted. If I can get this wideband done and the pinion angle fixed and relocation brackets on I will be down to go to the drags. The old lady might go out of town so I will be able to play. Ron, you interested in a new ds safety loop? I will make you a super deal on it so say yes. So, all that is left is the linelock and power wire for the nitrous and the above items.

Hey Craig, this is Bud (you tuned my 91Z for me just prior to deploying) it made me sick to my stomach to hear about your car and then see the pics. I envied that thing from the motor to the paint, but very happy to know you walked away from it. And on top of that got another 3rd gen. I saw that ad soon after the guy put it on there and was glad I wasn't back home cause I would of went to look at it (maybe buy it). After we get back, if you still like the forth gen dash and console swap I did to mine I'd be willing to help you out. I still have a lot of extra 4th gen parts from the swap. But not really any 3rd gen parts. Again sorry to hear what happened, but thank the Lord your are ok. See ya once I get back.

Hey Bud, What's up man? Only by the Grace of GOD no one was hurt, but the car was hit on all panels except the passenger door. We need to finish tuning your 91 when you get back if that's okay with you. When are you getting back?

need a stall for mine as well but there are other things on my priority list. Namely Long tubes. But I have been working on my tune more, learning more and more what works and what doesn't.
