So, which of you fella's wanna help Danny Boy out this summer?
I've changed my mind on getting rid of the firebird. I had planned to get rid of it and get a GTO, or a Mustang GT.. BUT, I'd rather not be paying loans the rest of my life. So I started thinking I'd supercharge it, and realize, that's just not worth all the trouble or the cost.. SOOOO
Rather, what I'm going to do.. It's buy myself an LT1 or LS1 crate engine.. (I'd prefer the LS1, but we'll see) And a new tranny. This is going to be a ton of friggin work, which I am not completely comfortable doing myself. So who here wants to help Dan with his little project? I'm going to be broke, but I can't offer much. But I can offer some beer and a nice hand shake and thank you, plus the fun of allowing you to rip apart my Firebird.
I don't really have the space here to do this, so I'm going to have to bring it somewhere. Before I went and begged some other friends I know, I figured I'd ask on here and hope someone :::cough::: Dave :::cough::: Would offer to help me out with this little project.
First thing I'm going to do with the crate engine, unless I buy it brand new, is obviously rebuilt that entire thing. Most likely go new headers to exhaust on it, as well as add an intake during the rebuild. Among a few other odds and ends, and then depending on what tranny I can find, and if I go that route, work on that, then, swap it out in my car.
So anyone here wanna lend a hand, and help me out here? I'd happily credit anyone who helps me out, and I'd owe you all big time. But before I paid major bucks, I figured I'd ask the fella's on JBO. It was also help if anyone could hook me up with a good deal on a crate, or parts or what not.
Never hurts to ask, right?

Well, look at it this way fella's/// I trust you all, more than most shops! I know someone here can help me out, I read this is only a day project, that the LT1 just drops right in, it's pretty easy.
What's really gonna get me, however... I want the WS6 hood, So it's gonna take me a little while to save for both. Nonetheless, here is what I plan to have done by next year.
LT1 engine swap (tranny if ness) (hopefully rebuilt)
LT1 heads
WS6 hood
Trans Am aftermarket intake
Trans am front bumper
Exhaust (Flo-master? not sure yet)
Rims
Buffed or repainted (if ness)
And I've also seen this prog. for the LT1.. Costs like $300.. So, I'm def. gonna get me that and have that done.
I may add a little to my system if I have the $$. But now that I'm out of debt, I think this is a good goal for the next year, year and a half. Plus, I have a feeling my girlfriend is either gonna buy me the exhaust or headers.
But I need help with all this, I can't do it if I have to pay a shop $70 an hour to do something I can do in a day, with a hand.

I believe JBO is a growing community just like the real world. As it grows there has to be some level of control to keep from corruption. When people post they generally dont consider other types of audiences and im just as guilty for that. I dont think its all about control though. its what you contribute to it that makes the best of it. i have been here for a couple of years and i enjoy coming here. i like meeting new people and increasing my knowledge on cars. i think i would be a good moderator because i been here long enough to see how stuff works. i understand the dos and donts without reading trhe rules and regulations. its as if it were implied. (Dave i hope this isnt a april fools joke)
Joshy I heart you <3
