hey guys

  Im new to this site. I have a couple of silvie's my new project is a 87 silvie stock 350 soon to be a nasty 6.0 liter looking at 500 hp. I'd love to do a speed but the budget says 4L80 to hold the power. it's 2 weeks old to me and in piece's all ready, going frame off resto.
I purchased it for 700 bucks off a guy in pa. it sat in his backyard for 3 yrs changed the oil added a bat and it started right up. gota love chevy's. I found some similar project's on already have answered some of my questions. I'll post up pics in the project forum..
