Yeah my tints look black at some angles, but my tails aren't blacked out,look stock except for LEDs.

No don't work there, we had a dyno day there last year though. Tried to get another one going but they wanted too much money.

 

Yo anything happening in the Stamford area this spring/summer?

 

Start something up

 

anyone from here at mohegan few nights ago? projectors, hids, rims, black with some kind of graphic on the side?

 

huh my brother works at pratt in ... meriden? and his fiance is going to be working at pratt in east hartford

 

I just work in Stamford I don't know anything about the area.

 

Did any of your guys see the cover of the journal inquirer yesterday. that house that was on fire was my best friends she is basically my sister. they lost everything tomorrow im meeting them at the house we have to pick throw things and see what can be saved before they level the house.

Devon Drive Fire - Manchester, CT Patch

 

Just glad no one was killed in this one. Losing everything is flat-out awful but at least they're alive.

 

yeah thats what everyone has been saying. It just sucks they have lived in that house all there life. all there baby stuff the mom saved the pictures over the years everything is gone. the mom had a barber chair in the laundry room that was work over 5grand.

 

Is that J&M Performance in Manchester by any chance?

 

Nice. I see a black ss/sc in the parking lot sometimes, not sure if there is a pratt meriden, there is a plant in middletown

 

ahh yea I always mix that up i always think he lives in middletown and works in meriden lol

small world what department do you work in? or is it one of those.. can't tell ya kind of departments

 

Nah I can tell, I work the nacelle hardware for the new smaller commercial engines. It's pretty cool, get hands on time with stuff most guys look at on a computer screen all day.

 

Nah it's total induction in South Windsor. I would NOT recommend going to him for ANYTHING unless u have a Ford Lightning..

 

Haha.. trust me I'm very familiar with Mike at J&M. He's a nice and knowledgable guy, but I personally wouldn't bring anything but a Ford to him for modding or tuning. I've personally seen first hand a tune he did on a cobalt a couple of years ago and it was a little rough to say the least ::::cough cough Chris' car cough cough:::: (sorry if you don't know Chris btw, but he and a few others know what I'm talking about.. )

He will however most likely be tuning my Bronco when I finally finish building the engine. The guy definitely knows his **** when it comes to sb Fords, especially windsor blocks.

 

Car is now registered and I'm loving driving it!!! More pep then I expected too

 

when the weather gets nicer ill pull the g5 out of the garage and we should meet up.

 

Weathers been nice all winter. Hell I've had the streetbike out all winter

 

true... but I cant hate all that much, I do have the dynojet print-out that shows 267whp

 

Any of u guys have any experience with a mid 1980s Monte Carlo SS? Some guy in my dorm has one and won't stop talking about how fast it is. i asked him what he had done to it and he just listed a few simple bolt ons and I don't think its tuned.

 

^ standard 350 motor

 

[QUOTE=sujomatt;6366120]Now that you say that, I remember seeing a Red Cobalt SS off the Exit 6 from Rt2 a few times. Thanks bro, i can't wait. It finally got picked up by the transport company. Should be here thursday or friday

lol yup that was me in my old ss sc lol pass by napa one day bro ill love to see ur car

 

How's that monster TR12 working for you ixxgh0stxxi? That thing is silly big! Lol


That's way too open ended of a question to ask without checking the car out for yourself or having someone that know what they're looking at. The thing about a sb chevy 350 is that he can easily be running a tricked out 383 stroker and you'll never know the difference unless he tells you.... or blows your doors in.

Just have him pop the hood and start it up. If you see just some basic bolt-ons and a presumably stock looking engine that idles relatively smooth then chances are there isn't much done to the engine. Even with a 383, the stock heads and intake from that erra don't flow for crap especially if you add more displacement.

Just ask more questions about the car and try to get some more info. Either way.... just run him anyways! Unless you're racing for money, who really gives a crap if you lose.

 

What do you mean to open ended of a question. I told you, he has a stock Monte Carlo SS with some bolt ons and no tune. Also considering that i have a stock cobalt lt I don't think im gonna be running anyone at least not until June when I'm s/c

 

Lol relax man..

It's open ended because by your own accord you had no idea what was really done to it aside for maybe a couple of bolt-ons. **** I tell people that my car is basically stock with just a couple of bolt-ons. It's not a complete lie, but it's also making about 350whp. It's all part of the game that most street racers play by. You down play your car to sucker unsuspecting people into racing.... hense you're question being very open ended

Secondly, if it's a mid 80's monte it more than likely carbed anyways, and even if it wasnt , those tbi pcm's are so prehistoric that even with a chip it won't do a god damn thing for him unless he has some decent mods done to it..
