New here, migrated from LS1tech
Hey everyone,
I'd like to introduce myself on these forums after lurking for quite a bit. I am a member on LS1tech (99Zeeeeeeeeee28) and decided to move over here because I am looking at purchasing a C6 within the next 1-2 years. I've been a crazy car guy since I've been able to drive but unfortunately I recently had to sell my obsession of a car. I owned a 1999 Z28 that was pretty heavily modded (ALL done by myself) which was a complete blast! Modding and driving that car gave me such an addiction to these toys that cannot be cured.
I am quite proud to say that I had completely changed out the entire powertrain of the car, minus the rear end (oddly enough
) from research and how-to guides on forums by myself. Being only 21, this was one of the BIGGEST experiences of my life. Here is a list of what was done:
LQ9 engine swap
MS3 cam and supporting valvetrain
LS6 Intake
42lb injectors
Lid
LT Headers
A4 - M6 transmission swap
LS6 clutch
MGW short throw
A/C delete
Emissions delete
Custom true-duals w/flowmaster single chambers
Fake cats
Racetronix 255gph fuel pump
412/392 tuned
This car was my daily driver and although it sucked during the winter, the warmer seasons easily made up for it. I'm on here now to do some research on the C6s as well as a temporary cure for the itch of speed.
Here is a quick vid of the last dyno session I had before I sold it.

Thanks for taking the time to read!

Welcome to the Forum 
That was a nice Z28 and a lot of hard work went into that car sorry you had to sell it, but congratulations on all you were able to do and putting together such a killer Camaro.
