Back in the saddle again!!

Well its been about 2 years since I sold my 94 but i'm back with a new 96. I know I didnt post a whole lot before so no one will probably remember but...My 96 is a 51,000mi. green w/leather, t-tops, 6-speed, and a Lunati 383, I personally dont like buying cars other people built but I couldnt pass it up. From what i'm told and have seen reciepts for its a Lunati stroker kit, has about 10.8:1 compression, Corvette 4 bolt block, stage 2 LT1 heads: 2.00in. 1.56ex. valves they flow 238.6in. 187.6ex. @ .500, Comp Cams 230 236 .510 .520 114lsa, LT4 timing chain, Crane Gold roller rockers, Lingenfelter CAI, G2 52mm t-body, Edelbrock headers, TTS exhaust, NX nitrous kit, tubular control arms, adj. panhard, Dick Miller torque arm, strut tower brace, sub. connectors, shift fork upgrades to the 6 speed, Eibach springs, and WS6 rims. The motor only had 74miles on it when I bought the car now its around 850mi. There are a few things i'd like to change like the headers and exhaust, never liked either one but all in do time. I'm just going to try to enjoy driving an f body again, it is my everyday driver too.

urbaNHunter44, no problem, I paid $9,500. I think it was borderline over paying but I wanted it.

Re: Back in the saddle again!!

sounds like a nice car but those flow numbers are nothing like a stage 2 port job atleast the ones i know of are in the 265-270 range intake wise although the exhaust aint that bad

Thanks for the complements...

I agree those numbers arent very impressive, along with the cam specs. Those are also 2 more things I would like to change in the future. I used AFR 190's on my 94 Z w/ a 355ci. motor, i'd like to try a set of AFR 195's w/ a LT4 intake or if anything else has hit the market in the last 2 years that I missed do to my vacation from the f body.
