    Newbie from Chesterfield

    Hi
    Been in MI for about a year. Car in sig. Just finished rebuilding a t56 and swapping out my A4. Looking forward to getting it out on the road once the weather breaks. Next Mod is an AS&M TB which should be here Tuesday.

    I am currently in a hotel room in Bowling Green, KY. as I type this. I went to the Corvette Museum yesterday. It was awesome. Looking forward to getting more involved in the local car scene this Spring.

      I was there a little over 10 yrs ago just after the C5 started production.

                      Wow. I just went through your install pictures and I am very impressed! You know what youre doing! going from a bone stock Z to a LE3/503 h/c must have been one hell of a difference!! Did you go with the 503 for driveability? most people with ported heads go bigger.

                      Im planning on doing a cam swap this summer, but man those shiny heads are nice!

                      Welcome to the site, i hope to see your car in person sometime... id really like to see how it runs! Im from macomb so im usually at the weekly Mt Clemens and berrymores meets during the summer (if im working at home).

                          So your down at the Corvette Museum huh. Did you happen to take the Plant tour also ?
                          I was there a little over 10 yrs ago just after the C5 started production.

                          I brought the family. Wife, 4 yr old and the 6 mth old. The kids couldn't go on the plant tour. I think they said you had to be at least 6 so we just went to the museum.

                          Things that imo where nice to see where:
                          The only 1983 Corvette.
                          A 1984 Analog "backup" dash (in the works side by side the LCD dash incase the LCD dash could not make it to production)
                          1987 Callaway Corvette
                          1990 ZR1 Spider
                          One of the 1989 preproduction ZR1's.
                          The 1995 test corvette for the Grand Sport package offered in 1996.
                          A 1978 two tone silver/black Indy pace car still with plastic on the seats.
                          1988 35th Anniversery sp? All white with the black roof. Looks super nice when this clean.

                          1981 4 speed L82

                          Cars I wanted to see but they did not have at this time:
                          1967 427
                          1969 ZL1
                          1989 Convertible 6 speed (<-the dream car from my high school days)

                            At the time I had an A4 with no plans for getting a TC. I also wanted driveability. I am really happy I didn't go bigger. I think it's still a good driver and not so much a strip or weekend only car which was my goal. I still wanted to cruise with the top down with the kids and not have them smell like gasoline when we were done. The wife hates that.

                            Hopefully, I can catch some of the meets this Summer and talk cars.
