Its going to be sloooow but the 'plan' is to have it running again by next spring!! Car has been apart for 5 looooong years and after ducking a few of life's curve balls (getting hit by a couple, lol), I am starting to collect parts to complete!!
I've got a pretty decent foundation as my black '01 SS M6 has only 16k on the clock. Previous motor was tweaked by Lingenfelter in the form of heads, cam, etc. Car was primarily weekend warrior rolling on 18" Simmons "F" Series 3pc wheels and Eibach Pro's with Bilsteins made it sit nice
.
Wanting to change things up a bit, I sold off the big-ticket items in the motor and wheels/tires. Off course I had big plans and intended on replacing everything with bigger, shinier - had a 403 ready BUT SOLD IT TOO
...blah, blah, blah, anyway didn't, couldn't, 5 years later, here we are. No motor, rolling on salad shooters. Nice.
On to the good stuff....
Addicted to both power and bling I've been stock piling misc parts over the past couple months with a purpose in mind while I pursued and researched how and with what would I replace my 'big-ticket' items with. Some of these parts include:
UMI K-member
UMI Upper and lower control arms
Meziere water pump...shiny
LS7 Fuel Rails...also shiny
LS7 Fast intake...see a trend?
CTS-V brakes
Build process has started for the really good stuff...
RHS 460 by Virginia Speed
18" Fikse Profil 5s (9.5 and 11) in Dark Speed Silver
Prior to the tear down we were members of the WMCC and loved the camaraderie that is all too common in the fbody community. I (we...wife and I) look forward to coming out to play with our fellow fboder's once again soon!!
I will be sure to add project pics as the process rolls along....so please stay tuned. If I finally finish this thing, it should be pretty cool....
