[Akjimmy907]

Damn it man, first you take 900 bucks outta my kids college fund cuz you MADE me buy your ratty old tires, and now you wanna dis me on a national level

 

[Akjimmy907]

hey

Little info on the orange blazer. I owned it like 5 years ago, back then it was a 305, auto tranny, and np208 T-case. I sold it to a guy who did the frame swap and while he was at it added the 400 motor, sm465, and np205. So I sold the truck and bought it back 5 years later with all the hard work already done as far as drivetrain!. Its kinda cool because I was wanting a K5 again and if I got one I was going to slowly overtime swap in this exact drivetrain. Guess I didn't have to do that!!.

 

[Akjimmy907]

oh god who let this guy in here!!

not sure, but I can find out for you easy enough. Thats cool your woman is gonna put in some work herself!. Got the headers installed today on the 400, now she makes your big block sound like a NEON

 

[yellowK20]

Dang , where can I get a neon that sounds like that?????


LOL, well the K5 looks good !! you and Aaron should come hang out with us 2B2P guys more often were laid back and cool. not a bunch of arrogant pricks that think there better than everybody else like that "other" Valley club

[yellowK20]

Disclaimer : Alot of those guys are cool but the whole club "attitude" sucks balls

 

[sledheadak]

lol saw it tonight.looks good now go wheel the thing.

 

[Akjimmy907]

hey

Aaron and I went to the meeting last night. I got voted in and am an Official member of 2B2P. Aaron will be next month. Kidding about your big block, that things sounds like a 300lb Pitbull ready to attack something, sounds Wicked!. Besides if Neons sounded like that I'd own one!. Another cool thing about 2B2P is that there are alot of Fullsize GM guys so I'm sure by hangin and wheelin with you and Mike(sleadheadak mike) I can learn about my tuck and some build tricks. I'm happy, the "Other" clubs are cool and all, but you guys fit my style and attitude, this will be good.

 

[yellowK20]

Cool, Like I said its a laid back group of guys we dont throw cubic dollars at our rigs . we use our heads and find deals and make things work......... so you'll fit in !
