Hey I just wanted to share my find with you people. This is my moms new boyfriend..hes soo cool, and what a coincidence he has a freakin mk3! We hung out today and i checked out his mk3 and he wanted me to restore his engine bay and I was totally up for it. We also went for a drive in his c5 vette which he let me drive! I was very very impressed with his corvettes and how well they handle.
PIX!!
1967 L88 Corvette...1/20 made i beleive
his 87 supra
another shot
engine parts for his engine build
block
From what he has told me (and hes freakin smart as hell) hes goin with weisco forged pistons, stock race prepped rods, o-ring'd block + hks MHG, arp hardware everywhere, race head built...1mm o/s valves and a custom clutch setup. Hes only gonna be doing a 60-1 ct-26 upgrade and some goodies like an hks exhaust and hks intercooler. The graphics on the car came with it. The biggest suprise that came to me was the 14" brake setup he put on the car....its just sick...i didnt take any pics cuz i forgot but ill take them next weekend and show you guys. He also did a shitload of suspension mods like swaybars and shocks/springs...its a very impressive car!
He knows his shit...hes been racing cars and bikes forever and has had that vette since 72. Hes my new best friend
