|

Hello everyone, my name is Marc. I used to live in Hillsboro, Oregon for 7 years. fiveoformula and Lane are my best friends there and I thought I'd join the site. I've always loved F-Bodies and plan on getting a 6 speed LS1 in the near future...
Although I don't have an F-Body like most of you guys, I don't think you'll mind this...
I have a '98 Pontiac Grand Prix GT. Started out as bone stock GT with not a single modification on it.
We have done many things to the car. We did a full top end swap (L67 top end, L36 bottom / 9.4:1 CR) which was very successful. I'm currently the only top swapped Series II 3800 V6 in Colorado. After the swap, we did supporting mods to increase boost pressure. There are too many mods to list, but I do have some pictures.
Enjoy, and I hope you guys don't mind a big 4 door FWD Automatic
And just for good measure

That is a quick little GP you have there. Welcome. I lived in Westminster, CO for a while in the early ninety's. It is a great area.

Welcome!! You'd be about 80 miles to the north of where my brother lives in Colorado Springs.
Nice looking GP. _________________ 92 Camaro

| Last time I knew, he had a big ole Dodge van and a motorcycle. He and I retired from the Navy at about the same time, I stuck around locally where I retired and he moved a bit inland (his last 8 years were at Pearl Harbor). |
