my new freakin' haircut aka mullet

[woody90gtz]

Too low? That looks tits! It does look a little strange with the offset in the rear though.

How's the 4LsleezyE?

[spacecadetz26]

the sleezy is good. I like putting the pedal down 1/4 and getting wheel spin. There is also no muffler on this beast. it has some kind of muffler delete pipe that splits into duals like a regular muffler would. and yes its too low. i may put eibachs on it but i think i'm going to use the stock springs for now.

[spacecadetz26]

today I took off the LT1 and the corvette emblems also the front plate bracket.

and no one will know its absolutely filthy and I havent washed it yet! lol arctic white FTW

[spacecadetz26]

Spent all morning washing/waxing it. I dont think the previous owner ever waxed it so it needs to be buffed theres a bunch of small scratches that are noticable when you look at it up close. I also took of the red camaro sticker that was on the back filler panel. it still turned out pretty good though for being only 50* and my dog barked at me the whole time because I wasnt paying attention to him. he thinks hes the boss.

Anyone have any 98+ Fbodies in their yard they want to snag the front spindles and calipers for me? lol
next weekend I have to replace the front pads and Ujoints on the Tahoe otherwise i'd swap out the springs too. maybe ill wait to do brake upgrade at the same time.

[Chazzman]

I've got a pair of spindles but I'd have to check on calipers. I'll let you know Steph.

[spacecadetz26]

If you got the spindles already it wouldnt hurt my feelings to buy new calipers. unless your used ones are in really good shape.

Thanks Chazz

[Chazzman]

All I got are spindles. No calipers or mount brackets.

I think it's awesome the way it is!

I always did like a little bit of that drag racing look, low-ish in the front, high in the rear with wide tires.

[spacecadetz26]

yesterday I swapped out the struts and springs. i now have 4x4 ride height.

I was going to reuse the ST struts but when I took the wheels off both fronts were blown and leaking oil. and the strut bushings were toast. but it rides like a cadillac now with the new struts. it was cake taking it all apart, even the original swaybar links came off by hand once they were loose.

I'm a huge fan of the 4th Generation F-Body - especially the pre '98. B4C huh? I wonder if it was a marked or an unmarked cruiser...either way this is a nice find! SLP may even have some “SS” hoods left – that would be a nice addition IMO. I have a ’96 T/A Ram Air and I like it a lot more than the 98-02. I know the LS1 is faster for these rollers, but it seems the pre ’98 F-Body’s are a lot harder to find. Good purchase here, have fun!

[spacecadetz26]

it was supposed to be a New Mexico state police car and was sold at the dealer to a guy that ordered one and it was sold from under him. It was never in police service.

and big yep to LS1 cars being faster, My previous F was a 99 Firehawk Trans Am. it was stock and if I was able to hook up with the 6spd that car would have been high 12's in the 1/4 easily. I had only raced it maybe 6 times and each time i was getting better. then I sold it which was inevitable I had only driven the car 2k miles in teh 1.5 yr I owned it... I believe my best was 13.4 @109 and this is no traction burning the tires off on the launch with really bald/crappy goodyear gsc street tires. I love the look of a Ws6 though I wouldnt mind getting another.


I want to High Speed autox this camaro. and probably drag race it for fun. which is why I opted for a hardtop instead of ttops. blackhawk farms is a short distance from me.

[spacecadetz26]

I got a low speed auto-x to go to on June 9 so excited... I need to hook up a manual fan switch first.

Last night tested my computer to see if there was a speed limiter just for the heck of it, got up to 130 and it was begging for more this thing screams.

[woody90gtz]

Jesus...a stock LS trapping 2mph higher than my 355. The LS swap idea keeps floating around in my head. I have a 383 core SBC waiting to be built, but those LS are stupid fast so easy...and more street friendly at higher hp levels.

[spacecadetz26]

'

edit: now that I remember it was at 105mph not 109, i think thats what the bf's z06 trapped the first time he raced it. not trying to make false claims and I have pics and slips to back it up. 109 is believable though lol.

I recall a green 80's caprice on 24"s that trapped the same as me but was 12.7 or .8... i was like wtf.

[woody90gtz]

Still quick...especially considering how much more street friendly it was than mine I'm sure. Mine can be a pain in the ass!

It has done 107 and I think I could eek 108-109 out of it with some track tricks...but my ET's sucked too. 13.5 best so far. When I was waiting at the track for a tow after I grenaded my stock rear end there was a Roadrunner doing 12.5s@104 consistently. Pissed me off - I know I should be well in to the 12s.

I need wrinkle walls to hook it right. Next time I go with it I'll have it on a trailer with it all set to go. Aired down, swaybar unhooked, no p/s belt and the bars loaded.
