The Firebird
Well I had it all together and running for a few months and I just trahsed a rod bearing. I'm putting the motor back together this weekend and going back to the track. New additions are a msd 7al-2 igntion, msd coil, rear air bag, oil cooler, msd 3 step, and I took the lower control arms off the car (which i heard is a MUST with the SSM lift bars). I also switched to 3.50 gears. Finally I reworked my powerstroke intercooler b/c I was seeing 9 lb pressure drop across it. Yes, I said 9 lbs :) I was seeing 55 lbs of pre turbine pressure at only 18 lbs intake boost pressure. This is NOT good. ANything over 2:1 is way too much. I really need a .96 turbine housing as well. Hell, I need alot of shit, if anyone wants to give donations :)

The Pickup
I'm looking for a SBC and a TH 350 to put in the truck. I recently sold the motor and trans out of it. Maybe one day it'll have a turbocharged 383 in it :)
