Re: Black Z28 is going to live again

Cool! Nice to have you back! I will pm you my number. I was getting out of thirdgens, but my wife says I cant... So, she bought the IROC off me and said I needed to branch out. I will start building tubular suspension parts in the next couple months. Adjustable lower control arms with 3/4" heim joints anybody? We will be at the 91st and northern car show this friday. Come join us?
What'd you do, get into that 4thgen you bought and forget about your thirdgen?<tsk,tsk>

Re: Black Z28 is going to live again

no no no
I did work to my vert and it has been marinating.. i drive it some
just waiting to sell it to someone that will enjoy it.

My z pissed me off a lil.

I got a 62 international scout and have been working on that a bunch
we have been 4x4ing because its fun and no to much police interactions
I have got that thing to a pretty decent arena minus the clutch that needs to be done and im going to adapt 2 chevy alternators to it..

So im selling my other 4x4 outdoor toy that is awesome 82 bronco, good daily driver, edelbrock parts great interior, 31'' new bfg all terrians.. top comes off
i will hook someone up for a great deal.

Or im also selling my 94 camaro convertible..

But back to my camaro
So u guys know about my oil leak i had that i thought was the rear main seal but ended up being my intake well yeah i fixed that and broke other shiz LOL

So my car has recieved
6 speed tranny with hurst shifter, centerforce clutch
12 bolt moser 4.56 rear end with 4th gen brakes on rear. and relocation brackets
2 piston ssbc front brakes
new wieland water pump.
AND I HAVENT EVEN ENJOYED OR BROKEN THOSE PARTS IN YET. SHEEESSSH

Now new injectors.
I had mine cleaned this time and 4 of mine where not flowing right. so i had to buy a new set . HOORAY...

And i had vacuum leaks again but from the runners this time LOL
Hooray for me LOL

and i found some issues with the runners i bought, so they are being aluminum welded to fix the issues.

So i am gonna put that bad boy back together and hopefully it will be great.
but i can tell u this IT WILL BE UP AND RUNNING IF NOT BY THIS FRI..... OR NEXT FOR FING SURE!!!!!

I still have a digital dash, 4th gen console, my wideband 02 (put back in), driveshaft loop,
TO put in once it starts acting like a proper camaro.....

Re: Black Z28 is going to live again

Very cool. The guys in my jeep club will probably let you come hang out with us. they have been pretty cool in the past about other makes hanging with us. (They let toyotas and a few scouts come along for the ride.) I will probably be at the car show next friday, with the jeep. I will see if you show up, but your track record kinda sucks, LOL! The following week, I may bring the IROC, but I dont know. I'm waiting for a Y-pipe to show up and I still have to weld those A.I.R. tubes to the headers. With all the stuff you have done to your thirdgen, it would be hard for me to park it while it is so close to being truly bad-a$$!!!

Re: Black Z28 is going to live again

Hey, do you still have those gray cloth seats still? I might need them sooner than I thought. Wife broke the seatbelt guide on the driver headrest. Also, send me pictures over the phone so I can see them. Will text you tomorrow.

Re: Black Z28 is going to live again

Hey how's it going. Been a while... my black 92 bird has hit a few snags (mainly the crank end thrust opened up to .024", I'm putting it back together now).

I have most of the wiring harness adaptations (88 engine harness with 92 body harness) done. Manual to automatic conversion is done.

You have a 94 Camaro convertible? How much and what are the specs?
