Default i did it

i sold my mustang, i spent 3 years building it, and sold it last week


now there was a good reason for doing so, ill post the pics up tomorrow. i got my hands on a 2000 Camaro SS, royal blue with 28k miles on it from my neighbor. wife drove it to and from church and publix every sunday, and to work once or twice, lol.

the thing is im clueless on these cars, i know the 5.0's inside and out

so im a chevy newb, so when i start to ask questions, dont get pissed. i got the basics down, but other than that, clueless



here is the mustang i had so you have an idea of what i did, ill post the SS tomorrow once i get some good light










oh, and a name change is in the works, lol

Awesome man!! Love the blue color! Youll be amazed at how well these things respond to mild mods. I was just at Rev Extreme tonight and saw a 98 with full bolt ons (headers, exhaust, LS6 intake, tune, lid,) put down 359 rwhp and 360 rwtq!

Nothing against 5.0's at all, I just need out of this car. Probably a 98+ z28 6spd is what I'll end up in, or if I find a descent enough deal on a 6spd c5.
