TWEAKED

Hey all...cruised by to say "hey". Usual stompin grounds are LS1Tech (LPE 403), but nice to decompress over here away from all the "experts".
Have a Black '01 SS M6 (16k) that's been sitting in my garage finally going to get some attention. "Old" car was a nice weekend hot-rod/garage queen (Lingenfelter H/C 346, Simmons 18", some show goodies, etc).
After 5 LOOONG years, a few "set-backs", two house moves and a wonderful wife that saw/shared my dream, we've made an effort towards realizing what should be a pretty cool ride...
Some of the in-progress project highlights include:
Wheels:
Fikse FM5s - 18x9.5 and 11" in Dark Speed Silver - fit for narrowed 1" per side rear :smokin:
Engine:
RHS 460 by Virginia Speed.
Heads will be blessed by Mozez and will be fed via Marcella.
Cam is TBD and will be targeted to perform in a street RPM; < 6500.
Misc components consist of a undetermined rear end selection (S60 or 9"), some show touches, UMI tubular front end goodies (K, control arms, etc)....blah, blah, blah.
God (and budget, lol) willing....we want to complete the build by Power Tour next June. Would love to roll this thing out with some of the nation's coolest rides in our home state! :D
Anyway, thanks for letting me publish SOMETHING...been going nuts not putting something in "the community".
