His car runs better, but is stock, and has minor piston slap at cold start-up. . .

    I had to tell him no. Had it been a 6-speed car, with a dark gray/ebony interior, and no engine noises, I would have jumped all over that deal.

    Reason for the offer? He just bought another F-Body for himself, and his '00 is probably going to wind up being the wife's summer DD, and she likes the color of my car more than his.


    It was a half-joking, half-serious offer, I'm sure we could have worked something out, but honestly, I'm in too deep, my parts car is an LT1, my parts pile is all LT1-specific, heck, I'd spend the next 5 years accumulating the aftermarket/go-fast goodies I already have for the LT1 all over again. lol
    Definitely doesn't sound like you would have enjoyed the trade, glad to see you stick to your formula.

    Thanks, I'm happy I decided to wait it out. When the LT1 is running right, and I can start spending some money on the things I really want to do to it (replacing the clutch and brakes with upgraded parts, getting rid of the cracked windshield, painting my wheels, etc.), I really think I'll enjoy it more, since overall, it needs less work than the LS1. The LS1 car, however, is faster, runs better (for the moment), and would open all kinds of new doors, as far as my understanding of the technology is concerned.

    I agree, I think my Formula will be a better fit for me in the long run, as the color is more unique, it has all of the options I have wanted since I got into F-Bodies, and it has more done to it already than the LS1. The Trans Am just has a set of wheels and a muffler on it, my LT1 Formula has bolt-ons already, so it should be a close race if we were ever to line them up at the strip. My problem at this point is the way the car is running (still trying to figure out the hesitation and hard start), a couple trans issues (always seems to grind if I try to grab 2nd gear too quickly, and the springs in the shifter were installed backwards, so I always miss 3rd gear), and the fact that I've spent so much time and money trying to track down the engine issues, I haven't had a chance to start working on the other known issues.

    1994 Pontiac Formula-PPM, LT1/T56, BBK Stainless Shorty Headers, Magnaflow cat-back, 17" C6 5-spokes.
    Coming Soon: Full UMI tubular suspension, UMI STB, Eibach ProKit coils, KYB AGX adjustable shocks, and a tune.

    What a night! Woke up at 4:30 this morning with 7 EMS/FD standing around me in my bed.

    Guess i had a really bad low blood sugar around 3:30 and was having seizures for almost a hour. And i was blacked out and tried to fight all the medics. I grabbed one EMS guy by the throat and was choking him. Took 6 guys to hold me down.

    Was covered in blood. And got blood all over our new sheets when i ripped the IV out of my arm.

    Hope you're feeling better, Justin, glad you're ok.

    Good morning everyone. Decided to beat the heat today and woke up early to shave my head and beard and all and brought my Stanley blower fan to work with me. One of the AC units at work died over the past weekend and it's been 80 degrees in the office every day this week. Put up with 3 days of it, but today no more. Between no hair and this fan, I should be able to stay nice and cool today since it's supposed to reach 97+ outside here today.
