Well I'm just cruising around the web for info about the F-body and I thougt I might as well register here.

Bought my -95 Z28 in april and it's now in the garage for the winter. Managed to put another joyfull 630 miles on the car this summer and can't wait for the spring again.
This winter I'm going to do the infamous intake leak repair, just bought som gaskets and sealing and will start when my motivation is up for it :D

I'm trying to find a set of headers with an y-pipe to fit my one-cat exhaust Z28. I think I'll be going with a set of coated hooker shorties because they come with all fittings and the y-pipe should fit right up to my cat.
I was thinking of going with the long tubes but I guess there are no y-pipe that will bolt up to my single cat exhaust?

Regards

Hi Dan and welome
Edelbrock Makes a set of LTs . Me and a friend put a set on a 87 IROC . It was the worst pain in my life but it can be done in a day.

Know that feeling ... though I thought I hardly drove mine ... 630mi must be a record ;)

Welcome to the board. I can't believe that you only drove 630 miles this year. I drove almost that far just getting my car home from the port. Hope you get to drive it more next year. Hope to meet you sometime.

OK, more like it ... as I said, I put some 6-7k on mine this year, of those for the 4 Bitburg races @700k each ... but weather was pretty bad here this year, weekends usually pretty sorry, so not that nice for driving a 'vert ...

Man I have put 16k milkes on in one year. I'm one of those who love to drive and drive. Whats the point of having a nice car and leaving at home?

Welcome and did you visit the Big Meet in Vastaras (excuse my spelling).

Jagsy: Yes I took my camaro down to Big Meet this summer, I had it in the camaro area. It is a 550km drive from where I live. When we tried to get in on saturday morning we had to spend about an hour in a queue, my friend who arrived later on had to spend 3 hours though. I think they got about 9000 cars in there, but when they closed the area on the afternoon there was still several km of cars waiting to get in :D
They estimated that there was some 12000 :!: cars there in town in the eveneing....I was there last year as well....A nice place to be for people who likes american cars like me :D

Hawk: Northern part of Sweden.
