Translation I'm a failure at building cars (please see HCI 6.0 Fbody for proof) and need to pay someone to run bolt on times.

Things like machine work and milling, etc., I will pay someone to do because I don't have the tools but I get satisfaction from turning my own wrenches, Mac. Sometimes you gotta get down and dirty on the garage floor for a job, I used my brother's lift when I lived in IL and obviously prefer that method.

I do all my own maintenance however building an engine with parts that's gonna need a tune after I'd rather have someone else do that bc it's also warrantied after. But yes using a lift is way better.

All this new **** is heavier and loaded with amenities you don’t need for a hour of fun. Makes for a way nicer DD though.
I’d be all about a Gen V LT1 A8 combo in a C5Z/FRC chassis.

Lol that's weird considering the 454 in my dad's Camaro I built that... I've also help build several other engines as well, put new torque converter in my cousins old truck in his driveway, changed my alternator several times bc of the typical power steering pump leak in my ws6, changed the oil in all my vehicles, brakes, rotors, wheel bearings etc... But you right idk what I'm doing never mind the fact I've also done body work on a Miata as well

Im doing everything I can possibly do myself because Im building this car on a spare change budget. Bills, vacations, my truck are all priorities over the Camaro. I lack a transmission and the holley termi setup from having a complete car and I have roughly $750 of actual cash in it. Lol.

I think C8s are going to be hard to find I this year, should be a ton of C5Zs going up for sale.

That doesn’t hurt my feels one bit. I needed a C5Z at welfare pricing anyways.

C5Z with lsx454 and 4l80 swap and a 9" would be awesome
