newbie from san gabriel valley!
hey whats up everyone! new guy here at the forums! I have been to a few motorgen runs over the past few years in my fbody and they have all been pretty cool. Unfortunately my dd took a crap on me a few months back and I had to start daily driving my fbody and ya that didn't work out so well haha after a few weeks of driving a ridiculously loud 6.0 cammed z28 the local law enforcement started giving me way too much crap. So I sucked it up sold my baby and bought a nice low pro 2000pontiac gtp. Its definitely a huge change up but I think it will definitely hold me over until I can save up for another weekend warrior. So I hope to make it out sometime soon - daniel

Don't let that motor fool you, you can make good power for fairly cheap. My parents had one quite a few years ago and I liked it a lot.

hey thx for the welcomes guys ...ya ive heard some pretty good things about these 3.8's but I have yet to do any type of research. I haven't even had her 3months! So far there doesn't seem to be much power down low but the top end is nice and especially once that supercharger gets going. She drives smooth! I will post a pix when I get a chance. |

The durable as all hell too. I had a riend who got a solid 250k miles out of his. Of course you can shorten that to pretty much nothing with the right (i.e., wrong) combo of mods!

A smaller SC pulley would be pretty cheap.
