my winter project.
 

So I bought a truck for the winter time, which is fantastic! Can't beat a winter beater! So the balt is going to be garaged all winter long! My current mods are pacesetter header, 3" exhaust, 2.8" pulley, #80 injectors cobra h/e, colder plugs, zzp 3" intake, e85. I am building a winter laundry list of things I plan on doing while in storage:

ls4 TB (the gains will be worth it, see below..)
2.6" pulley (yes I need my snout machined..)
fuel pump rewire/ upgraded pump
upgraded clutch kit (not sure which one yet)

PORT & POLISHED head (yeah baby!) :guns:

It's gonna run like a raped ape. Anyone have any other suggestions?

suggestion! take your time and goodluck with that build! sounds like a really good setup for some nice numbers!

dual pass and option b

of course silly goose! :) first I gotta get a new IC pump,

I plan on just chilling drinking a beer while porting the head, taking my time and not shaving metal as much as smoothing it out, probably supertech valve springs too while I'm at it, cleaning the valves is a must, and probably a nice gasket to go with it! It's going to be super sick once it's done.

Can you fit another balt in your garage? I'll come join you!! :lol:

unbanned, my hero.

Change those lame ass headlights :lol:

No seriously, i hate those style lights

I knoes! Back from the dead! 7 days with no CSS was like fucking a bitch without getting a nut!!

God, I've done that before. Wierdest shit I've ever done. I was like WTF is going on here, then I just gave up and passed out.

you don't like 1st gens? :lol: My money's going to go fast goodies not so much cosmetic.

funny you should ask because it is the tiniest garage I have ever laid eyes on :lol:
big enough to take out my head and port it at my house.

Probably couldn't fit a chair in it, but it's attached to a town home so it is semi-warmer than a normal garage.

:lol::lol::lol:

:twothumbs

Jesus, lol! That sounds tiny! I'm fortunate I have a garage with 2 heaters and a heated floor! I've always wanted to do a winter build with someone, oh well, it'll be my lonely ass working on my car alone all winter again! :lol:

get addicted to meth. It'll help with that 2.6

I actually used to live in new lenox. It had to be the best place I ever lived, idk how old you are, but I used to go to Haven elementary before they turned it into an office building.

no thanks, I know what your trying to do! :lol: My timing is pretty much maxed out and meth would only be a cooling mod pretty much.

you must heat soak like a bitch...........and you could run more timing with meth :D

:lol: I don't heatsoak at all really. And yes I COULD run more timing, but then I would probably be picking up my parts from the street. lol, welllll I can probably add a bit in the low end.

He is E85, his timing should be maxed already.

yes sir, and it's like running on angel tears. Love it.

Sounds like some good plans. Ill also be putting a ported head on! I should be an interesting spring with so many people doing winter mods

No shit?!

I just turned 20 this past June, I know it is an administrative building now, right on the corner of Haven and Cedar!

Not sure when they got rid of it?

Ya they did that like 5-6 years ago. I'm turning 21 on the 30th. I used to live in a townhouse with a little pond that I fished in, by school house road that Mary Sears preschool or whatever it is. I haven't been down there in a while. It's a great town because it's not too big and it's not too small, (I miss that town....) Oh I used to live on sojourn rd. by some middle school.

and I went to school with the son of the guy that owns "Holy Cow leather works" next to Ace hardware across from jewel. The guys son's name was "hunter" that was a weird name to me...

Nice! I'm not sure exactly where you're talking about, but I know that Mary Sears is off Route 30 and Spencer. On the same corner-ish as Firestone and Napa. That is the only preschool in the town.

It is a nice town really! There are a ton of teenager (high school) vandals now though. Bunch of fuck-ups really. It's not just kids in high school though.

Every time I park I've got to make sure I keep an eye on my shit because a lot of people out here are "rednecks" and drive lifted trucks and think they're amazing.

you guys have 1 cornfield... stupid rednecks, my philosophy is if you want to be a redneck YOU ARE ONE. My townhouse was right next to the new lenox water tower. That should make it easy. Since I know where you live you can pm me if you need help with anything I live like 15 mins away. ;) no homo just car stuff and bullshitting.
