Roll Call - New England Guys?
I just wanted to see who is in the New England area. I have seen a few around on the board, but I was going to see it we could get a CamaroZ28 gang together once in a while. You know, swap stories, BS, terrorize ricers.
It's discouraging when I see 2 camaro's in a week and they are both V6's with old folks driving. That or a flock of 30 ricers in every parking lot in town.
My car is on the road and I'm checking in.

Off the road 'til spring '08
I am from the Worcester, MA area but had to park my '95 Z28 when my wife backed into it in my driveway last month.
I'll be back on the road following a bit of cosmetic work on the front (fender, hood, header panel & paint). I just may take the opportunity to repaint a new color as well since I have never been too happy with the teal. I seems kind of girly somehow.. Anyhow - hope to see you all on the road in '08.

In May I drove my car to work one day and I noticed a lot of steam in the exhaust for the first five minutes. When I checked the coolant level it was low. Put a pressure tester on the cooling system, and started the car the pressure built up fast. So the head gasket was leaking. Fast forward to last weekend and I finally got a weekend to work on the car. Having a kid really soaks up your free time, especially with no family in the area to entertain him and the wife....
I was going to put the stock heads back on my car since I've had quite a bit of trouble with the GTP heads. During the teardown I decided to hit the heads with a torque wrench and even 50 was moving the bolts! So I held a pow-wow with my helpers and we decided to take our chances and retorque the heads. It has worked so far but I'm not sure if they will hold boost. I bought a T-trim over 3 years ago and still have yet to put it on. If I continue to have problems with the car I might sell it and buy a more useful G8.
I might be interested in getting to the track this year. Beat on the car a little and see if the head gaskets hold. Just can't decide between a weekend test and tune or a Wed/Fri night. Those are tougher just because it's after a long day of work. Getting old.
