New from Arizona
Wow, I love this SITE! Its like the place I was always looking for!
A friend of mine who is a Chevelle lover, of all things, told me about it. I currently have a '57 Chevy that I bought in '98 and have done a full body off hot rod build on. Ten years and about $43k later, its won several best of class trophies in National events, and quite a few best in shows at local events. Best of all, I drive it almost Every Day, its an awesome running and super reliable vehicle. Currently running a 350 GM crate motor with a TPI system scavenged from a '95 Camaro, the system has been refined to a zero emissions wiring harness with a map sensor computer in place of the old mass flow setup, and programmable chip. Its currently tuned to make 335hp and 300 ft lbs of torque, while still getting 15mpg around town. My other project is a 2000 LS1 Trans Am that is undergoing a WS6 conversion. Adding the ram air, dual intake hood, Corsa Catback Exhaust, and 18x9 Elite Barb wheels. |
