Hi folks, new guy here from beaver/Brighton township. TooFast98Cobra talked me into signing up cause I'm either always asking him if he knows anyone who wants to buy my junk....or if he knows where I can buy other junk. Heh ;).
As for my car...I have this 85 gt I bought last November that I've been trying to finish. It's a California car and has only been in the Pittsburgh area for about a year now and was 70 percent done when I got it. It had all tubular suspension, coil overs, sub frame connectors and a built 351 Windsor based 408 stroker. Motor details = 10:1 compression, victor Jr heads and intake, and a 248/254 .609/.609 custom ground hydraulic roller
the bad = stock t5, stock 8.8, no cage, stock driveshaft, no loop and still 4 lug. Oh and the exhaust is a little undersized. Plus a couple other odds and ends I'm sure I'm forgetting that need to be updated to get it tech legal and safe
I recently finished redoing the 8.8 with strange 35 spline spool, axles, and their c clip eliminators made for the street. Converted to 5 lug in the process all the way around. Also added an aluminum driveshaft and loop.
Right now now I just finished converting to efi(one of the new fitech systems) and I'm building a 4r70w to replace the t5. Still need some things to finish that... The plan is a street strip car that drives well and hopefully has a 10.7-10.8 in it.
Now to figure out how to add pics....
