    Default noob to the IA site

    whats going on people.. long time poster on the VW vortex.. so i decided to join your little site. ive got a few toys right now my pride and joy would be my 1998 VW GTI VR6 turbo.. no it didn't come that way like all the lucky 1.8t guys around i had to make mine a "T" car. but with a little work and some dollars i got a 400+whp corvette eatin' beast. not to brag or anything
    and i have a 91' s-10 body droped and shaved, and a 671 blown small block with lots and lots of custom work... it is not on the road yet but maybe in a year it will see the streets again. Enough typing just wanted to say hi.
    now some pic.

    yeah the mighty mouse is in the frame now... i will try and get a pic posted up im in the process of making a set of headers for the truck. Its tough to get them to clear the frame since it didn't use one of the off the shelf s-10 350 kits
    i made my own i wanted the engine farther back to help with the traction issue i know i will have and so i could run a larger core rad. thanks for the kind words on the VW... the ext is a work in progress

    Well, that's awesome you aren't going with the typical 350 kit in an s-10... Are you making your own headers or is a shop doing it custom for you? What size you running on the VW? I am guessing fully built internals too... Either way, very nice work... Don't look like you took any short cuts on either vehicle.

    My dad and i have done all the work on the s-10 including building the 4 link the upper and lower controll arms all the engine mounting, the body drop everything. the vw is a 2.8VR6 P&P head with cat 262 cams, stock rods for now, je pistons and a t3/t4 60 trim 660cc injectors and a C2 motorsports tune. I want to build a 3.0VR but the old one needs to blow up fist pics to follow
    the truck about 8months ago



    the vw build
