Well, this is it. The beautiful 95gt has to go. Bought the car when I was in high school, during that time I thought it would be a good idea to put a 351w in it, trick it all out, litterally (trickflow everything) everything from gears, driveshaft, numerous exhausts, computer tunes, you name it, I did it. Oh I forgot to mention I live in California, where you cant own a car and be happy with it.
So I get back from college, well a few breaks in between but yea, I got it done and I have this car back on my plate (have paid for a storage shed for the past 4.5 years to store it). Doesnt pass smog, CA now how a law that doesnt let you put any sort of truck motor into a car, my block cam from a 96 F250. Blah Blah the motor can never be driven on the road, Im glad that I spent 5 grand and got nothing for it, yes I dream big, unfortunately.
So now here I am, looking to have another motor built, a 302, forged everything, alum heads, the works, just to find out that any sort of cam in a 94-95 5.0 requires a tune of the computer(I really hate ****ing tuning) and I know CA smog shops just love that ****, so thats it, its done. Cant go on, **** California.
Time to buy a junk yard motor, all the 5.0 crap again (lucky for me i was smart enough in my youth to throw away all my original crap 5.0 stuff). Hopefully after the 1000 dollars it will take with junkyard parts I can get 2grand for my car and break negative. What a joke
