LT1 Revival
Well guys, after 3+ years of sitting in my parents barn, I figure it is about time I rebuild my 1995 Trans Am. Its an LT1/ttops/6spd car, has bolt-ons and needs lots of tlc. I know it isn't worth it, but I want to for sentimental reasons. Looking for any pointers/tips on what I should go with, given my budget ($6000+/-) and what it needs (1/4 million miles, blown starter, engine burns just a little oil, floated valves, blown oil pump). Would like to keep it an lt1 block for reason of simplicity, and want to see 12s or better out of it, without spray, which shouldn't be too difficult. And although I will do some of the work myself, most I will not do since work and college keep me busy. Also if any of you have parts for sale I would be interested, just keep in mind while the car is in Hopewell Twp I am in Punkin Center, WV. Anything I should expect to replace (besides tires) on a car that sat for a while? It has a stg II clutch (original one blew in Hancock, MD) and new t56 trans (also blew up)
Thanks
