Welcome to the Michigan FBody Association website.
The Michigan FBody Association is a centralized website for FBody enthusiasts to discuss what's going on in the Michigan area. MiFbody.com was created to allow for an easy one-stop place to find out what's going on in Michigan as far as FBody events, to find out what clubs are available in your immediate area, and for an easy place to post classifieds for items you want to sell! Our goal was to create a more close-knit community of FBody enthusiasts in the state of Michigan, and to bring Camaro and Firebird enthusiasts alike together for some amazing FBody events!
The most important thing to know about the Michigan FBody Association is that we are NOT a club! The Michigan FBody Association is open to everyone, and is a community. Thus, we will have get togethers, casual cruises, events, and such like that, but this is not an exclusive club and it's 100% free to join this site! So what are you waiting for? Register now!
If you have any problems with the registration process or your account login, please contact us!
How many sets of wheels is that now Darren?? Your like a chick with shoes! Glad to hear that you are making some progress with the car though.
I don't know... Stock RS wheels, 16 inch chrome irocs, 18 inch C5 wheels, 17 inch fitti's and now he ZR1's... But I'm still looking for irocs or still thinking about buying the 18's.
Small victories, this was a bigger PITA then it should have been.
These ones here are to mint to change the finish. But I have a lead on 4 polished ones I believe they are replica's for a decent price... I wanted to see what the polished ones looked like on my car as well, if I can get them for the right price I will probably pick them up. If I pass I could forward you on to the seller if you would like.
Polished would work fine , they aren't going to remain the same finish anyways. Current ones I have are white, plasti dipped black (use for strip). Want to have an actual set of ZR1's to have you or Jon coat them in a gunmetal ..well thats my plants at least.
working on it, still have a long list to go. But its going to get done here soon. Might not look the best (paint didnt live up that well) but I will be repainting it piece by piece. Actually have a green fender on right now, deciding which fenders to use and not to use.
Damn I really need a set of ZR1's..Already have 2..but wouldnt mind 2 or 4 more
Want some polished ones? I might be buying another set here soon... But these things are MINT and I think the silver looks good on the white. I might keep them I might not,
Oh I just been bustin' hump working too many hours and not getting paid enough for it :laugh:
As far as the TPI, SFC, floor boards, rear swap, carpet swap, 383 build - nada. I have't touched it all winter ... First thing's first, I freed up some room in the shop to get some work done, and so far the only thing I've ended up doing out there is help my buddy weld up some pieces to make a little oil burner heater for his shop. Other than that, my little torpedo heater doesn't really do anything out there other than stink up the joint and blow dollar bills into the air ... So once I find it fit that I sort through all my TPI stuff and take off all the bolts and bracketry I'll load it up into a box. But for now there's little pieces of hoses and clamps on there still, some sensors still screwed in some parts, etc. Right now, honestly I'm saving to see if I can't afford myself a new truck sometime soon here. The way I figure, is the car runs. Runs damn good. Why mess with it ... for now. What I really want to do, is put that 383 in there and spruce up the car and pretty much not touch it after. A ported/polished TPI or other fuel injected intake on an oldschool 383 stroker motor sounds just like what I wanted to do with the car int he first place, and pretty much call it "done". Then I'd love to pick up another thirdgen and LS swap and, well you know, race car shit.
TLDR, working too much, lazy, gotta sort out TPI stuff then it's all yours! When you wanna do this? I'll bring some cold ones
I fail, I didnt take any good enough pictures to post but yesterday was quite the productive day.
I started and almost completed my front LS1 brake swap just waiting on getting the right brackets.. [MENTION=709]bri2203[/MENTION] have you heard anything? Alum Driveshaft is in, steering shaft is finally in, brake lines ran and done up front, rear brakes are almost complete now that Jon and I figured out the E-Brake issue, front plastics are in, radiator, fans are done, new Founders Performance strut mounts are in and the new STB has been mocked up...
Still on the list, is to get it running right, still seems to be a problem with valve lash or adjusting the rockers (over my head stuff) need to Get Jon [MENTION=2135]bigjon88[/MENTION], Jon, Brian, Curt [MENTION=2246]Curt_irocz[/MENTION], Nash someone or everyone over!
@NullHead , what have you been up to man? Ready to come hang out in the garage and share your knowledge again? Also hows the TPI stuff coming along, drop it off when you come!
