Default Hidee Hoo!

New to the site here. My smog guy told me about this site so I thought I would check it out. Looks like a pretty good group of people from all genres of automobiles are able to see past their differences here. Looking forward to getting to know everyone.

Welcome aboard. We're doing Palomar a week from tomorrow.

The daily driver is an 04 GTO. The money pit is a 94 corvette. I put some pictures up on my profile. Basically I'm rebuilding the engine after smashing an exhaust valve into a piston. Since I don't want to do stuff twice, I decided to do it right. Ross pistons, Manley 300M rods, Compstar crank, Blower Works D1SC at 15 psi with methanol/water injection. The heads were repaired since they were already ported by Advanced Induction. Since I already had the tranny out to get the engine to the machine shop, I had California Performance transmission go through it one more time. The rear end is a Dana 44 with 3.91s. According to Desktop Dyno, it should be in the 700 horsepower neighborhood assuming I knew what I was doing when I filled in the blanks. Hopefully it will go down the quarter pretty good.

Once the parts for the new motor start coming in, I'll start a thread in the motor, tranny, suspension section. So far it has been months of planning with vendors and it is finally coming together. The short block had the crank and rods arrive last week. The head unit and supercharger were shipped last week so should arrive soon.
