Hey everyone, im mark. im living in charleston WV right now but im moving to columbus this fall to go to OSU. I was wanting to join up here to meet some people and see what the automotive scene in columbus was like, cause it kinda sucks down here. ive got a few rides, most are work-in-progress my baby is my 1986 grand national. its got je forged pistons, te44 turbo, a th400 tranny, ported heads and intake, and a 212/212 cam just to name a little of what its got done. im getting pretty anxious to take it to the track, the guy that owned it before me ran a 12.94@112 with a 2.4 sixty foot... which is pretty weak. that was also before i put a new cam in it (it destroyed the lobe and lifter on cylinder#3) fixed the brakes (it wouldnt build any boost on the line) fixed both motor mounts and soon im going to rebuild the tranny and hopefully add alcohol injection, id like to have it in mid-high 11s with alky and this turbo. heres some pics http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b200/dragcamaro/car/Grand%20National/P1010136.jpg http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b200/dragcamaro/car/Grand%20National/P1010135.jpg http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b200/dragcamaro/car/Grand%20National/P1010131.jpg and this is my 2000 z28 DD http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b200/dragcamaro/car/Project%20Candy%20Cane/0806081529-00.jpg it looks purple but its really a dark red This is my drag car project as it sits now, my dad and i plan to run A/SA when we get it done. http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b200/dragcamaro/car/Drag%20Car/1010081606-01.jpg http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b200/dragcamaro/car/Drag%20Car/1010081606-03.jpg http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b200/dragcamaro/car/Drag%20Car/1010081607-00.jpg since the pictures weve got afco shocks and springs on its, the underside is painted and all the suspension work has been painted. Thats basically my life story haha. my family has always owned an shop so weve always been working on something. thanks, Mark

http://www.cnn.com/2008/US/12/09/military.jet.crash/index.html I don't know how many of you have been following this, nor do I really care if there's another thread about it. Cliffs: -F/A-18 pilot on training mission loses power to one engine, tries to fly back to Miramar (San Diego) -Loses power to 2nd engine, by all accounts goes into a flatspin (Top Gun anyone?), ejects. -out of control plane hits SD suburb, demolishing one house containing a woman, grandmother, infant, and small child all related to one Korean man who was at work -Korean man prays for pilot, hoping that he doesn't feel remorse for the accident My god. I hear stories all the time of people going out of their way to help those who are less fortunate, but here is a man who has lost everything and yet asks for nothing, places blame on no one but chance, and who holds no grudge against the one person the media would love to villify in this whole thing. I'm not normally moved by these human interest stories but I am utterly dumbfounded by this man's composure. In this time of hardship for all Americans we should take a lesson from a man who has only been in this country half his life.

thats what im hoping. its got ET streets on it now so it aughta hook. the guy that oned it before me was a retard. there wasnt even a gasket on the downpipe. he gapped the plugs to .015 as well... idk why. right now the money im putting into the car is just fixing the other guys mistakes haha. im going to take it off the frame in january since its missing half the body bushings (bolt rusted out or just rotted and gone) and fix all his screw ups in the engine. you should have saw the oil pan gasket. he had it so tight it broke into 3 pieces.

i can build my own tranny, it had a th400 when i bought it. second went out on the factory 200 which is sitting in my garage ripped apart. it will go back in in due time thanks guys mark

Great...and up-to-date version of a Testarossa body kit on a Fiero.
