Orangebird project getting underway

[orangebird]

Hi, newbe here, my name is Mike and Iam starting on getting my Orangebird, 95 TA started on a 91MM Turbo, Blowthru on a 347 LS1. We just striped the car from the dash to the front to include motor and trans. and front clip, will be adding a 98 front clip too. This is my sons car (who is in the Navy) and when he left it was a runing 11.04 nitrous car. Now it is on jack stands and striped. So this may take a little time to finish but depnding on how many parts we can sell and come up with the extra money to finish, we hope to have finished sometime this summer. Well see. Talk to you all later Mike.

I have some pics but dont know how to post. Right now there are not many pics as everything is torn apart. As we start puting everything back together we will get some pics posted. We are going to do a build post as we go. Might be alittle slow going depends on finances though. Motor will be 347CI Steel block, callies rods, Manley Pistons, and Callies crank. Will run a front drive dist. C&S 800CFM blow thru carb. Heads are 241 ported and polished at home and will be running a solid roller cam specs not determined yet. The motor is being built as we speak and should be ready by next month sometime. Will be runing Large Frame 91mm Precision turbo and no intercooler. Plan on using a meth injection and good fuel. Will run a powerglide, 12 bolt 323 gears, and chance convertor. 325/50/15 not mini tubed and will run drag radical class. Oh by the way we are in springfield, MO. so until later.
