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!
Jim - sorry about you luck with FTI - what was it doing?
Car survived the 1 mile test drive......neighbors must have been impressed: exhaust uncorked and on slicks
You must live out in the country like me! Loud exhaust or no exhaust normal....conv just slipped would never Couple on dyno...took it to the track u couldn't even hear the car shift! Just blew right threw it...this was after they tightened it up twice...
sigpicJust a slow 400 plus RWHP LT1.....428/370 NA
Jim, I live in a subdivision just on the edge of town. Figure I put up with all these pricks mowing @ 7am on Saturday's so they can listen to my exhaust
Sucks about your converter - mine feels better already. Seems to flash higher and but is tighter driving around. But we'll see on Sunday.
Debating which jets to start with....probably make a pass on 100 then immediately go 150 make a couple hits. If all is well I'll swap the bottle/plugs pull some timing and go 200

Lol - 200 is as far as I'll push it on pump gas. Next year if I have a standalone fuel system and with some octane in it, I might venture further.
That nitrous outlet standalone is a pretty sweet looking deal. Put some c16 in it and push that stock bottom end
How is ptc on there restall policy? I have a feeling fti is gonna screw me cause my car has sat for a year cause money issues and not restall it. I havent ran it but I think its gonna be to high. Might go back to ptc if they don't work with me
PTC has a 1 month restall policy - but the are pretty laid back about it. I had mine 2 months and they said if it doesn't work this time, they'll do it again for free - if I'm willing to pull it again. If I wait until spring it's $75.
If it works out as planned - i'll be out of gear on a 150 anyways
Well - trans still overheated on a 50* day. 220 degrees - cooked the fluid pretty good.
It got hot enough to fall over to the hot wot shift tables
Cooler has a fan on it - and it didn't make any difference.
Lines aren't long enough to front mount the cooler.
Converter worked better.
Time to put it storage for the winter and save my pennies for a clutch. The t56 needs at minimum a input bearing. I'd like to faceplate it, but I don't know if I'll have the cash.
Personally I think the trans is slipping in high gear. It's fine for a 100 shot, but the 150 shot only picked up 1 mph in the 1/4. It was up almost 1.5 in the 1/8.
Ricky if you are serious - we might be able to work something out.
I'm 99% sure I can de-pin the harness.
So I've got everything you'd need - minus the trans. I'm sure I cooked the clutches.
Sorry to see your having problems Jermey. 220 degrees shouldn't be enough to make the fluid smell at all. Sounds like you have something going on inside of that trans for sure.
Surprised you are having issues with it, even as a stock 80e. What do you mean by slipping in "high gear?" you should only be hitting 3rd in the quarter right? And during a shift or in the gear?
