Talking just bought another iroc

just towed home a new toy a 1987 5.7 iroc car is in very nice shape - has been repainted within the last 3yrs , has cpu chip dynomax cat back deal , american racing rims with good tires & interior isn't too bad . altough it wont start i figured it was too good a deal to pass up as for the starting prob - its getting gas but it doesn't seem to have any spark action going on , so tomorrow i'll buy an ignition module and cross my fingers! ( hey , it worked last time!!!) i'm planning on taking the ZZ4 out of my 79 and mating it up with the TPI , and hopefully i'll have a pretty bad **** car . other changes will be in the rear end and suspension when the time comes around - i just hope you dont get tired of all my questions !

well it definatly was the ignition module 30 bucks later she fired right up ! still runs a little rough at low rpm , but smooths out as r's increase . just happy i got it running for now so it can be moved around . still planning on the ZZ4 , anyone done this / know anyone who has ?

I really want an IROC as an addition to my 95, but i can never find a cheap one that isnt beat. I usually find nice Condition IROCs and a Lot of IROC-Zs. recently i found an 87 convertable 5 speed with 80,000 miles, its in nice shape but they want 8,000 for it.
