My name is Jeff and I drive a 95 Z28. I am a long time resident of Arizona and my most recent obsession is obviously F-bodies. I followed everybody over from CZ28.com and LS1tech.com. Looks like a great site!

My car is currently under the knife laid up on jackstands in the garage. Things started off with a simple Cam/Auto swap and kind of took off from there. It has turned into a full car overhaul. By the time I am done, almost everything on the car will be aftermarket or modified except for the paint...(for now):laugh:
My car should be back on the road in the next month or two and I will make sure to post up some new pics.

Here are some old pics to give you guys an idea of what I am working with:


My baby!

It would take me awhile to list all the changes, but I'll give you the idea:

CC503
1.6 Pro Mags/ Beehives
Chromoly one piece pushrods/guideplates
Canton valve covers
Performabuilt level 2 4L60E
Yank PY3600
Be Cool radiator
ABS Delete/Line Lock
UMI K-member
Spohn upper and lower a-arms
LS1 front brake upgrade
LS1 3:42 rear end
Black American Racing 17" TTM
Nitto drag radials

There is plenty more, but I do not want to bore anybody...lol

The radiator hoses came in a kit I bought from Summit awhile back. I switched back to new black hoses. Interested in the blue hose kit? PM me.

wasn't necessarily interested in a blue hose kit, i'd rather have black also... was just asking because I was wondering where it came from and if it was a complete kit?

No numbers yet. Once I get it back on the road, I am planning on heading up to Vegas to get it on a dyno.

I also forgot to tell you guys that the stance was nice, but it no longer exist. I ditched the lowering springs and went back to stock springs with double adjustable QA1's.:secret:

It was for the best, I guess. :finger:

Clean car man. Not a fan of the wheels but your car pulls those off well.

I think you guys will like the new combo I have sitting in the spare room.

Black American Racing TTM's
17x10.5 315 Nitto Drag Radials
17x9 275 BFG KDW

The Eagle's looked ok, but I have moved on to bigger and better things!
