My plans haven't really changed, but I'm not sure. Depends on if I want to keep my car after school or not.

Motor is the only thing I go back in forth on. I'm debating between a moderate h/c for ~450rwhp or a fully forged 355 with a blower cam/heads, and ~7psi for ~550rwhp, with plenty of extra power if I turn up the boost.

well my car is pretty much where i want it, besides the paint job that is. see where i messed up was i didnt do it right the first time actully the first two times. i spent alot of extra money i shoulnt of because i didnt do it right the firt time. i didnt mess anything up but an example would be i started with shorty header and now i got long tubes, magna flow to borla so extra parts an extra money for nothing.

I also plan on fully restoring the car on top of my performance goals, assuming I keep the car after I graduate.
(new floormats, full paint/body, new weather stripping)

thought id revive this thread for our new comers and updates if any one has changed where they would wanna be. Well im definitely not where i wanna be, the bird is drivable and is not overheating any more more but i still need my bumper put on, the plastic center section that holds the center of the bumper and i need a hood. its been frustrating, but im getting close. What about you guys?

well when i bought the car it was 110% stock and original, low milage, etc. After a mistake (trying to off road at 100 mph) my plans changed. I never planned on modding the car at all. Once I started, well you all know the story. I am getting where I want to be appearence wise. As for performance, I am happy. I have owned much faster cars, but now at 36 years old and 2 kids I gonna stick with what I got. Also I want to focus on my 56 chevy project. I may buy a new DD next year. It will probally be faster than my Camaro.

Well.. My plans were to sell my 94 Formula and see what the LS1 world was like.

If I were to keep it (at one point I had a low milage LT1 engine that was going to be swapped in), I was planning on rebuilding that engine (possibly a 355) with forged internals, cam, heads, full bolt-ons, and some n2o.

With my current SS, I have some plans for this winter.

New clutch, cam install, and n2o. :secret:
