Evidently I've been registered since 08 but never posted! I have a new 3rd gen project though so here goes! Found this on craigslist and with 2 little kids and plans for a 3rd at some point, time is limited on my '70 Skylark Convertible pro-touring build so this seemed to be a nice compromise for now. Long list of go-fast parts, only catch was coolant in the oil so I've yanked the engine for an overhaul. I did run it long enough to get on & off the trailer and into my garage and it ran real well (wicked idle with the CC305 cam). Prior owner had bought it about a year ago from the guy that built it, pulled the intake to fix an oil leak and then discovered coolant in the oil afterwards (thought he botched the intake job somehow?). Claims he drove it home about 2 hours from the guy he bought it from without issue so I'm banking on it not being anything catostrophic. He stopped messing with it at that point & had it at a buddy's shop who finally said it had to go. That was the story but was able to get in touch with the guy who originally built the car and owned it from '97 to 2010. He works for the State Dept. and actually took it to Germany w/ him for several years. It's an original 305 car so he added the Paxton while in Germany and eventually spun a bearing in the 305 at about 135mph on the autobohn. It was then replaced with a zz4 which he ran for a couple years before breaking a ring land after he was back in the states (car was his DD up to around 2002). He rebuilt the engine adding the forged pistons and comp cam and later added the miniram & heads. The nitrous was added and he popped a headgasket so he upgraded to a nice set of copper gaskets but then an oil leak developed and it began running rough when in closed loop mode (possible short or failed sensor?), and posi started showing signs of wear (ran ET Streets a lot & 315/35/17s) so it sat neglected for a couple years (he has a nice 72 Chevelle & Big Block 73 Camaro) until he decided it was time to sell. He claims mileage on engine as it sits is under 3500 miles w/ about 50 1/4 mile passes (nvr sprayed at the track). Trans & Converter, suspension & rebuild of Paxton have under 10K miles. C5 brake upgrade also under 3500 miles as that was the last mod he did. I suspect the guy I bought it from sprayed it & blew the headgasket again so it'll be getting a set of MLS head gaskets. Car has run as fast as 12.42 before upgraded impeller, however, found some detonation damage to one of the heads on cyl. 8 which I'm guessing is due to lack of proper tune as it only has an "off the shelf" TPIS Level 6 chip so I'll be upgrading to a DFI system as well. After spending a lot of time on thirdgen.org, I've discovered a bunch of guys running 11.8's to 12.20's with proper tunes and comparable head/cam combo's (without supercharger) so my main focus once it's back together is getting it properly tuned. Also putting in a T-56 I already had (already have crossmember & pedals). As always, what was supposed to be a quick head gasket job has turned into a big project, but I'm still way ahead of the game I think with all that's already done to the car.

Welcome the forum, look forward to seeing the pics of your project.

 

Some picks from when I got it.
