lol I hope not with that. you guys forget im half Afghan, nicknamed by ubg as prince Ali Baba? no all joking aside swing by ill be here tinkering with parts cleaning them up preping them for some fresh paint.
I found the brackets I need to mount my alt with out drilling holes in the old school heads I got.
Will be sending the heads out to a machine shop next week to run through them.
Also will be ordering a major amount of parts needed next week!
Once my stimulus check comes in ill be able to get everything I need and we can call the build back on!!!

You know what bro. Im tired of fixing this pile o junk and it not working. Time for a decent f body in my household!! I have the headgaskets I just wanted to wait untill i got enough money together for a whole buildwith my old school heads and a new cam and blah blah but -(found out those old school heads I got were stock 194 150 heads not 202s like i thought, and their stock porting, and their stock springs, ALL STOCK not all done up like I was told). F*** that im buying the water pump and intake next week and im going to just fix the main issues to get it running next week/end my self ill pm you but Im not going to have a big group of guys over. Im going to get this thing running and prob sell it soon.

ah that sucks man. Selling and maybe looking into an LT1? Either way hit me up sometime, I'll probably be at that car meet tomorow at applebees on ryders lane in milltown.

You wanna come pick me up and ill throw you gas moolah? Na not an lt1 i was thinking anls1 actually but we gotta see. I just sent my 69 heads to the machine shop yesterday so im well on my way to getting my car running again a few more weeks hopefully not much longer.

Bah.....just get a clean 3rd gen!

Been thinking about that too but if I were to dump close to 2000 on a nice clean thirdgen, Ill have a car with a 305 at best a 350tpi with no less than 90 thousand miles leaky ttops dirty interior and fading paint.
2000 is a nice down payment on a 99 trans am, more reliable looks nicer and all.

Either way my car will be running before I make a decision, who knows I might just keep her around.

[Jersyboyy]

Heads are OFF!! I cracked on of my heads, the opposite head that cracked last time. The gaskets the shop used were felpro mls too and it cracked just about all the way through the gasket.

I have a set of steel shim mr gasket head gaskets for .40 over bore which im going to be using when I put this thing back together. Just gota wait for my new parts to be ordered(need to collect some money first) and my double hump heads to have their valve job finished!

[Jersyboyy]

Well i Just ordered my new water pump air filter and cam lube from summit. I also ordered my alt relocation bracket from alan grove(thanks wildbillyt) I also sent paypal payment for a new(to my car) Performer rpm intake.

All I need now is a good cam,lifter and timing chain setup and y-pipe/radiator from chrisfromnj and the beast will be back on the road!

YUP. Summit sent me in the mail a coupon for 30 dollars off any purchase of 100 or more. So i spend just about 100. Now I have another 250 worth of parts to order but I refuse to do so with out another 2 coupons. lol
So if any of you get one in the mail and dont need it. Please pm me.
