mods89 Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 Nice! I like this build. I'm currently building the 99 camaro kit. I wanted to just build a turboed street car. But I had some slicks from a 72 camaro kit and I ended up tubing the rear. So not so much of a street car now. I still have a long way to go. I wanna build a intake like yours but have no clue where to start. Lol I'll be following this build.
mopar01lee Posted January 24, 2013 Author Posted January 24, 2013 Ok so got a lill done on the firebird... made a 6 point touring style roll bar.. fits nicely in the car.. intake set an clearing the cowl.. well finished the lsx valve covers . i also finaly got the aluminum wire i ordered to make the headers .. there made just no pics yet.. im also working on the 8 msd coil packs . enjoy later days.. davin
