  1. ive been poking around for an is with a blown engine, looks like a comfy daily ls car
  2. yeah proly time for a swap or sell the thing to someone who wants a roller to start with. Id bet rings are worn, best start would be a cylinder leak down test and compression test just to determine the health of the motor. Pull a plug or two and see how they look, maybe even replace the plugs and drive it then pull the plugs and see what the engine is telling you. Either way for the most part unless the car is cherry or you are doing work yourself or himself it is proly not worth it.
  3. right side of the car is heavy as fuck, I just figure my fat ass in the driver seat helps out some.
  4. same here would love to see what my heavy ass car weighs in at
  5. you have 62 on the attendance list post so we need to have 77 cars to make it happen and a max of 90 allowed...seems like a small window. Hopefully we get to the 77 mark, what do they charge for the rental like 2500 for the day?
  6. Stone city has 40-50 different kinds of granite from 39-50 bucks sq ft installed. Transformations was about 4500 more than real granite
  7. I did some work on this GTO in the past (cam install). Brian did the tune back then on it, well Steve decided he wanted to try his hand in nitrous so we got a used kit here on CR and installed it. Steve took it to brian and had no problem spraying 100 to it, taking it like a champ it put down 510/529 Im sure he will get used to it and decide to spray a little more to it if we upgrade his fuel system. He already has 60lb injectors so we might look at a bigger pump for it. Either way as always brian is the man! Steve who is not a member on here will be at track day with it hoping to get into the 11's.
  8. hopefully we have enough entered to have it and the rain holds off.
  9. how many total do you need to sign up to have the event?
  10. deer creek. I have not seen prices that low since, but I also have not looked much. It seems like most are less than 400 if you look around though. I still standby the less than 2k can be done to swap a 5.3 and turbo it if you shop real good and use turbo parts from chad. one day I am going to do a less than 5k notch with a turbo 5.3
  11. this! they are plentiful. my first lm7 (5.3) was 100% complete for 250.00 less alt/ps/ac car-part.com is your friend, dont be afraid to drive. I traveled to dicks in findlay to get my 6.0l for 425 bucks complete, after taking it apart it did not look bad and proly would of lasted with some head studs/ls9 gaskets on boost for a little while at 5-600 whp no prob.
  12. Did 70 sq ft of granite in my kitchen at stone city for a fraction of cost transformations wanted. And stone city is solid granite, they usually will negotiate free removal, and a free under mount sink
  13. I dont know of any but I do believe a certain radius around downtown is a no fly zone, except for police/medic choppers
  14. Talk to neighbors and any cop you see in the area. Check public records at the police station for reports in the area of any crime patterns. Drive through the neighborhood or down the street at different hours or the day to see who is out and what traffic patterns as well. Awesome time to buy a house right now, they are cheap and rates are stupid low. I know I just did a 15 year refi for 2.875%, deals are plentiful. Good luck in your search

    Hey Guys

  16. Martin Motorsports does amazing work and one hell of a good guy. His pricing is hard to beat as well.
  17. but then the french close 20 embassies out of fear from retaliation.
