just sell the frc, then you'll have at least $300 bucks to get the formula done!

so my dad figured out what the problem was with chris's car.
the passanger side spark plug wires were exposed and sparks were shooting out.
so i will go down to chris's house tomorrow to get him and the wires for that side.
we will put those in and hope that's all it was...
otherwise i guess that blaster coil and opti spark will be here tomorrow at noon.
i hope you guys have a good time at speed world tomorrow.
i think i want to just spend a night at home in my bed relaxing and watching a movie.
but good news is i don't work on friday or saturday!! YAY!!
i am thinking about taking a little road trip to NV to see that car.
i know my dad won't be able to go with me...
so i might need to take a mechanically savvy male friend with me.
i know mostly everyone has work...
i don't know. let me know if anyone is free to accompany me.
thank you.

Awesome, so Chris still didn't put those wires on good enough At least now he knows the deal...The Optispark is still a very good idea though, since at 145,000 miles it's ready to be replaced...

Greg- You can get that piece off any LT1 firebirds or formulas. The t/a's have the one with the bird in it as well. I think I got mine off e-bay for 15$.

I made some calls today and got **** in order...Cam will be a custom deal, lift in the .630 range to match those heads...Going with the ASP pulley, and a ported oil pump...

Then, i'm thinking tonight....Why not go ahead and get the TNT twister force 2 kit while I'm at it...100-300 shot from the power ring...

42# injectors and fuel system supplements will also be added...A 90/90 setup to follow, and then a Spec stage 4 clutch/flywheel to get the power back to the rear so I can explode that thing...

Why not just skip 11's entirely, and go down in the 10 second range?

Josh, do you plan on fly cutting pistons, cause that sounds like a lot of lift, what are the durations on that cam?

Lift won't affect the PTV clearance nearly as much as the duration...There is a lot of overlap in this cam as the LSA is tight, and it will fit with the 59cc heads that I have...Don't worry about it, as long as you degree it in there good, it will start again...

If not, I drive your vette to work...

Although, I will probably wait until my 3 days off again to do the install...That way I don't have that horrible saturday with no sleep again...Looking at the 2nd-3rd week of june for the major job here...I will have the setup near complete by then...

Hi i'm new on here, i just thought I would stop by and say hi. I live in pheonix. I also here that there is a slow red T/A running around here, it sounds like it has a missfire. And I have to get this off my chest...you can't be strait and drive an Lt1, everybody knows that.
