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!
Officially began tear down of the 5.3 last night.
Kinda stuck though because the lower head bolts are crazy freaking tight so im going to try some things to get them off tonight.
Got most of the heavy gunk and grim of the stock bottom end stuff thats going to the machine shop here soon.
Plan for the heads:
New stock replacement valves
BTR .660 Springs with ss retainers
Stock rocker rails
Hardened pushrods 7.400
Rockers? I was going to upgrade but was told to just do the TRUNION upgrade to the stock ones... anyone else have insight?
Honestly I rarely get any response on anything and plenty of other project threads do.
Im not crying about it im just not going to take my time to document this as I go or ask questions when I can do it all somewhere else where people are following.
ok well as long as i know someones paying attention to it ill keep it going. Never know whos going to be doing the build behind me just seems to be few interested parties lol
OK guys well i guess its good to know people are keeping up lol.
Turbo will more than likely be next tax season unless i have some stellar sales months because i want to order all of it at once.
And thanks hoogies, i was gunna go with new rockers all together so the trunion is actually alot cheaper. i was never going to stay stock because im going with the little john stage 2 turbo cam which is pretty aggressive
Sorry for no updates. Last couple weeks have been crazy busy.
Went to Tennessee and hiked the smokey mountains for a few days and then with mothers day and all Ive been too busy to get anything done.
Plus working on 100% commission at times i must wait for my monthly payday lol
