    Default Hey from Griffin, Ga

    I have a couple of friends on this site so I decided to join. I like the local part of this forum..

    Alittle about me, Im 22, married, got a boy on the way (due Apr 23 2009), Im a SGT in the Army National Guard as a 63B (till Nov 23, 2009 then Air Guard here I come), I drill with the 878th FSC in Augusta Ga, I work on Airplanes at Tara Field Hampton Ga.

    My 3 toys are:
    I own a 87 Camaro, with Oldsmobile 307 (5.0L), th-700r4, and 3.23 (Run pretty good really just a toy). In January I should have my Oldsmobile 455 (7.5L) installed and rolling.

    I also have 81 Cutlass (Future drag car) with a Olds 350 (5.7L) DIESEL, th-350, and 2.14 (slow as christmas) but run and drives great.

    I have a bike for the Summer, I have a 2005 Suzuki Katana 600, I have quite a few thing done to it. But it is still a Katana. But it great for dual riding.

    Yeah. Still doing it. There is just not as many people getting the attention of cops down there like there used to be a few years ago... Which is a good thing.

    This is my 05 Katana. It is down for winter maint. Im working on a 200 rear tire setup. Im about 80% done with that. Then I will send everything that is silver out to be Powder Coated black. And to finish Winter mods. I will have GSXR 750 cams install and Factory Pro jet kit.



    This is my 87 Camaro. I was planning now get in it painted in Jan/Feb but now. I got my hands on a Olds 455. So the paint booth is on the back burner again. Right I have a 307 with several mods. Eibach spring. half of a 91 camaro body kit. I will installed the rest probably after I get the 455 in.

    No it had a MPFI 2.8.... Im pretty sure I can dust almost any stock 3rd gen... If I can keep traction. My mom made me choice something for christmas. I told her Im grown and a kid on the way give the extra to my younger bro. But anywayz she is getting me two rear tire for christmas 275/60/15 hopefully then I can keep some traction (Im roasting them half way thur 2nd). But then I need a new tach (my died) a shift kit (had th-350 but now I got a 700r4, 4 speed for MPG ) and some tires by the time I get all that i will have the 455 in and I want never know. But the 307 is a stock internal rebuild, with a Comp Cam 268H. Holley Street Avenger 670cfm carb, Edelbrock intake, K&N, electric fuel pump, electric fan, complete MSD ingition, Stock exhaust manifolds with 2 1/2 flowtech muffler, No A/c, No emission and a B&M megashifter making it auto fun. I think that is it...

    ok, 1981 Olds Cutlass Supreme 350 Diesel, TH-350C, 2.14... I brought the car a year ago for $300 in Ballground Ga. I towed it home. But 2 good batteries in it. A new powersteering hose. Fresh Oil change.... And its been running great. I havn't drove it lately becuz I got the Camaro. And plus the car is really slow.

    True, but the exhaust shop requires cats. Which I probably will put my own exhaust together.
