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!

Billet fuel rails? thought this was a budget build ... just put you in racecar category!!!!
The fuel system is the one thing I'd rather not cheap out on and I've heard horror stories about the cheap rails, no to mention Huron speed is a nasty Nate dealer
rolo the rear currently has 3.73s we are swapping to 3.55s not a huge difference but the gears were cheap ($25) and our buddy is doing the install for free. Not to mention the 3.73s whined so horribly it was almost unbearable to drive the car.
3.23 would make for an awesome turbo street car though. I am going with that this time around on a taller tire. 3.42s in mine currently are fine but I want to go faster in my 1:1. Should go about 167 ish at the end of 4th at 7000 if the gear ratio calculator is correct. I am looking forward to doing that Michigan Mile this summer though. For the track I would use a 355 ish like Mike said and not leave power/mph under the table in the 1/4 mile.
I would have glady swapped in some 3.27s but these are what we found on the cheap, turbo cars love the load that comes from long gears not to mention its be nice to keep the rpms a tad lower on the freeway with no lockup or OD.
Well not a lot of progress but enough to where we can start cleaning underneath the car in anticipation for parts to start going back in, once the rear is back under it we will pull the motor.
not much been happening lately, we did get the fuel rails and I should have some more mail today, possibly order the converter soon. Next steps are to get the pump and harness ready to sell and then prep the float assembly to go back in. Going to use one stock line for a return so have to order that fitting and then get some hose and a filter for the vent. Anything special I need to do to get the gas out of this tank?
