  1. About 2 days after the fresh 6L90 went in, the pump failed and broke the bell housing as well, so back to TKR for another refresh and converter. After that maybe a year later, the TC solenoid locked the converter, so a WOT downshift broke 4th, 5th and 6th gears. This time, I sent it back for a Stage 4 Max Effort rebuild, new TEHCM, new valve body and Zip Kit. Also got the car retuned. New parts for fresh build and of course fresh full synthetic fluid and filter was done... 2nd build back from TKR
  2. After this, the 6L80 started slipping. So I decided to do a built Stage 2 Tim Kng Racing CTSV 6L90 swap with external trans cooler, Circle D Pro Series triple disc 3400 stall and one piece driveshaft. We had to make a custom mount as the CTSV 6L90 is longer than the 6L80. Old 6L80 coming out…^
  3. I had you, Mike and a couple others as mods on the old forum. Figured and do the same here.
  4. Right after leaving the dyno, I gave it a WOT test run on 840 and ended up blowing the rear main seal out. So off to the shop again to replace that. I also fixed the issue by installing a Mighty Mouse Camaro 5 Wild -12an vented catch can.
  5. That'll sound good!
  6. Took it to DBR for a tune and switched to the 3.9" pulley. Made about 13lbs boost peak at 6,800 rpm's and 760rwhp.
  7. After this, I tried to get a new 6th Gen ZL1, but couldn't cut a deal I was comfy with. That said, I decided to supercharge the 5th Gen instead. I did the DSX auxiliary pump, ID1300X injectors, and already had the ZL1 pump in the tank. We welded in the AEM wideband bungs in the new Kooks connection pipes and hooked up the AEM widebands. First start after ProCharger D1X install:
  8. Next was Circle D 3400 stall, full 3in Kooks exhaust with Kooks LT’s, TFS GenX 255’s, TSP VVT 3.2 cam and DoD delete from TSP, etc. First start: This got me in the 11.7's with TC on and with all season radials.
  9. From there, cat deletes, Cold Air Inductions CAI, widebands, and HP Tuners along with a trip to Beech Bend got me in the 8.5’s in the 1/8 and 13.1 in the 1/4 once I found Sport Mode.
  10. Before I found sport mode, it ran 8.8’s in Drive with TC on. Mods already on car when I bought it were Varam hot air intake and Corsa catback.
  11. Going to try and show the mods start to finish…. Here was my 2010 Camaro SS 6.2L L99 with 6L80 as is when I bought it.
  12. A 5.3 and single turbo will do it!
  13. I promoted you to Moderator.
  14. Ever rode a motorcycle in a hail storm? I did tonight. Very light rain turned to hail and then just stopped all in about 5 minutes. Stings a bit. I had red spots all over my chest and arms where it hit. LOL
  15. Chevrolet Confirms an Electric Corvette Is Coming, and It's AWD One of America's most iconic sports cars is going electric, with both EV and hybrid versions in development. https://www.cnet.com/roadshow/news/electric-corvette-is-coming
  16. My allergies are so bad, I feel sick. Never been this bad before. Never knew allergies could cause fever chills and body aches, but evidentially it can!

    Welcome!

    Well, I said I'd do it and I finally got time to get on it! I'm still building the place up, so as time goes on you will see more forum topics like the old forum had. Also, we won't have to worry about GoDaddy hosting issues and problems updating anymore because IP does the updates for us automatically! Thanks for the patience, all!
